Take a journey of love, protest and peace from the pen of this Belgian troubadour/poet. Jacques Brel blended words with music in a daring way. He invented words, exaggerated meanings and ideas and created characters which he played with unequaled passion - although we are going to give it a try. Jacques went through life, pen in hand, in search of other people’s dreams - love, hopefulness, peace, non-violence and understanding. Sounds just right for Bodhi Tree Concerts. Four outstanding, completely unique local artists will bring his amazing words and stories alive, retelling messages that have just as much power & meaning as when he first wrote them. This cabaret concert will benefit the Tariq Khamisa Foundation's Forgiveness Project / Restorative Workshop - a ten-session educational series with lessons focused in teaching skills to be mindful and manage emotions, be accountable for one’s actions, and comprehension of making amends, practicing compassion and forgiveness. Perfect for Jacques and perfect for Bodhi Tree.
