Blowin’ in the Wind: Songs of Bob Dylan and Leonard Cohen. Doors open at 6:00pm.
 
The tribute concert will feature a repertoire of Dylan’s and Cohen’s iconic songs, including “The Times They Are A-Changin’, “Blowin’ in the Wind,” “Shelter from the Storm,” “Mr. Tambourine Man,” “Hallelujah,” “Suzanne,” “Famous Blue Raincoat,” “If It Be Your Will,” and “I’m Your Man.” These musical selections will be performed by two accomplished musicians: Kimberley Dunn (singer-pianist) and Greg Weeks (cellist), along with a surprise artist.
 
Following the concert, we will transition into our second segment, a stage interview moderated by Mehmet Karabela with Cantor Gideon Zelermyer. Zelermyer collaborated with Leonard Cohen on the production of the Grammy Award-winning song “You Want it Darker,” Cohen’s final album prior to his passing. During this part of the event, Zelermyer will share personal anecdotes about his relationship with Cohen.
