A few of the things people are saying about Reb Drew's Hebrew Kirtans:

There are a lot of wanna-be gurus out there, and a lot of reasons to be skeptical of them. But Andrew Hahn possesses two gifts that distinguish him from the pack: daring and humility. He'll take you to very high places, but not to put himself any higher; he'll open your heart, but not take advantage. Add to that his grounding in Jewish text (he's a rabbi and holds a Ph.D. in Jewish philosophy after all) redoubled with his telepathic connection with the brilliant Shoshana Jedwab, and "Hebrew Kirtan" is a program that inspires and transforms. This is not your bubbe's Judaism -- but after a few minutes, she'll be clapping and dancing along with the rest of us.

"Kirtan Rabbi" has great energy and rhythm!
- Ari Priven, Cantor and Music Director, Congregation B'nai Jeshurun, New York, NY

As one who has for many years enjoyed Bhajans and Zikrs, knowing that someone is elevating Judaism by chanting Divine Names and verses brings me much comfort, even encouragement.

Hey, Kirtan Rabbi - You rock!
- Raquel Solomon, New York, NY

I never thought I'd go to a Jewish hootenanny!

I'm really hard to impress, and I was completely blown away!

Reb Drew is a gifted spiritual leader who gently drew each of us into the circle of song until we found ourselves enveloped in a powerful, elevating container of kedushah (holiness).
- Rabbi Jacob Staub, Professor at the Reconstructionist Rabbinical College

You really rocked 'em, Rebbe!

I was deeply moved by your recent kirtan service at Integral Yoga. There are very rare moments when I relate to being Jewish. Your service was one of them. It not only connected me to my cultural heritage, but it allowed me to deeply experience and revel in the essence of being Jewish.

Your chanting was the highlight of my entire weekend retreat!
- Marc Kohn, Rockland County, NY

I loved it. I loved it! Friends asked why I was glowing the next
day. Another friend who came with me to the kirtan, said it enabled
her to get through a rough week. And she isn't even Jewish!

I would like you to know how much I enjoyed the Kirtan. I suppose there is something very special about this Kirtan's connecting through my Jewish roots to Eheyeh in a way that Sanskrit has not. Its something I hope I will explore more. The way you encouraged us not to clap and appreciate silence after the chant's end was very nice and kind. The tolerance for others and for loving ourselves to be able to love others was so right on the mark. Connecting the chants to the concepts added tremendous depth. I could go on with other things I enjoyed and appreciated, but to sum it up: Todah!

I want to tell you how proud I was to be part of the kirtan you shaped with your fabulous visions for music and ideas. I thought it was really great. I'll do it again and again and again - just tell me where....Beautiful harmonium [playing], too!
- Shoshana Jedwab, Entrainment Percussionist and Jewish Educator, NY, NY

You are making a unique and important contribution to the world of kirtan....Chanting Hebrew texts is a natural extension of what the Hindi have been doing with their sacred texts.
- Sanchie Bobrow, Staten Island, NY

Just wanted to let you know how wonderful the event last night was. You made so many people happy and feel joy in their hearts. Truly a giving of grace to all! We were delighted to participate. Please place us on your email list for further events….You most assuredly have discovered a niche that is needed in our not so spiritual society!
- Linda Salkin, Armonk, NY

The knowledge and teachings learned from last evening are so fresh in my mind, and [I] hope to use some of the chants in my daily prayers. For the short time I was there, it really was so moving to learn how to let go and just be absorbed by the flow of the melodies. I actually fell to sleep much easier from the relaxation created from the repetition of the melodies. This practice of singing and chanting is so much needed in our fast paced society today. It was a powerful and awesome experience.
