ReynHartsik

  • Der Nister Downtown Jewish Center 639 South Spring Street 14a Los Angeles, CA, 90014 United States (map)

ReynHartsik, meaning heartfelt, is the Yiddish musical duo of Yoshie Fruchter and Rabbi Deborah Sacks-Mintz.

ReynHartsik, explores Yiddish poetry, loshen koydesh (Hebrew- and Aramaic-derived words in Yiddish), prayer, and nigun in an intimate acoustic folk setting. Using a combination of their voices with cello, guitar, bass, and mandolin, Fruchter and Sacks-Mintz bring new melodies to the Jewish music canon, using intricate songs, sensitive musicianship, and a sincere desire to connect with audiences.

The vocal chemistry between the duo is paramount, and the unique arrangements and compositions provide a setting that evokes past and present in perfect harmony.

In addition, we are delighted to have Sally Dworsky and Duvid Swirsky, two accomplished Jewish singer-songwriters open for ReynHartsik.

Sacks-Mintz, the Director of Tefillah and Music at Hadar Institute, is also a performer and composer who has collaborated on over two dozen albums and produced three of her own albums.

Fruchter, who is a musician, composer and bandleader with nine albums, has performed with a wide variety of Jewish artists and at Broadway shows. He plays guitar, bass, oud, and mandolin.
