Missing Voices is a moving musical tribute and concert experience celebrating Jewish composers silenced in the past.
This powerful concert, performed by French pianist Demitri Malignan and American soprano Lily Arbisser, as part of a national tour, sheds light on the irreparable loss of Jewish classical composers during the Holocaust. Missing Voices is a vital act of cultural restitution, bringing powerful, forgotten voices back to the stage.
There will be a Sips and Sweets Reception following the 75-minute concert.
The timing is significant as Yom HaShoah, Holocaust Remembrance Day, falls the following week. It is a day to commemorate the six million Jews murdered in the Holocaust during World War II.
Tickets are $25, students are free. Details or call 941-924-1802
Forum for Fairness in Discourse Lecture Series
Formed in the middle decades of the twentieth century, the settled-upon pillars of American Jewish self-definition (Americanism, Zionism, and liberalism) have begun to collapse. The binding trauma of Holocaust memory grows ever-more attenuated; soon there will be no living survivors. After two millennia of Jewish life defined by diasporic existence, the majority of the world’s Jews will live in a sovereign Jewish state by 2050. Against the backdrop of national political crises, resurgent antisemitism, and the recent Gaza war, the future of American Jewish life appears more uncertain than at any point in recent memory.
In this conversation, journalist and historian Joshua Leifer will join UF Shorstein Professor of American Jewish Culture and Society, Dr. Rachel Gordan, to discuss how these historic shifts are unfolding and why they matter.
About the Speakers:

His first book, Tablets Shattered: The End of an American Jewish Century and the Future of Jewish Life (2024), won a National Jewish Book Award. He is currently a doctoral candidate in history at Yale University, where his research sits at the nexus of modern intellectual history, modern Jewish politics, U.S. foreign policy, and Holocaust memory. His dissertation project examines the politics of antisemitism and the crisis of the liberal order.
Rachel Gordan is the Shorstein Professor of American Jewish Culture and Society at the University of Florida. She is a scholar of American religion, she researches Judaism and Jewish culture from the early 20th century to the present, with a particular focus on the immediate Post-WWII era, middlebrow culture, and American Jewish literary history.
