Kaddish Oriya - October 7 Commemoration Oratorio

NEVER AGAIN - IS NOW
Hannie lost her daughter Oriya on the October 7 massacre.
The dreams she shared with her beloved daughter and spoke of just the day before, where they envisioned their intertwined futures, were gone. Oriya will never become a mom, and Hannie will not become the unconventional grandmother to Oriya's children, the kind of grandmother she always knew her mother would be.
The world as she knew it until October 6 was gone, and she was confronted with an unyielding reality. Losing a child is the most painful thing. It hits you so severely that you can't breathe. Yet, amid the difficulties, she embraced life and continued cherishing her precious daughter's life, spreading her light, telling her story, and pursuing some of the plans they envisioned together.
During that unbearable year, with all the agony, pain, and longing, Hannie gave lectures and public speaking, went on with her academic studies, and, above all, composed a magnificent oratorio for soloists, mixed choir, and wind ensemble, which premiered on October 7, 2024, at the Israeli Opera House, where Hannie sang the leading soprano solo for her daughter.
That is Hannie's answer to the violence she was exposed to.

NEVER AGAIN - IS NOW!
We need your help establishing a fund to support this musical project and ensure this music will be sung again and brought to other places worldwide.
Besides the concert, Hannie gives public speaking, telling Oriya's story, her own story of choosing life day after day, when the wish not to is always lurking.
Your money will be used for travel, renting venues, and other expenses related to the project.
You are welcome to reach out for more information concerning the project.
We thank you for your support. Please share this with your friends.
