The Dog River Trio presents Pergolesi's Stabat Mater,
a fundraiser for the people of Gaza
Co-sponsored by Jewish Voice for Peace, VT-NH
Sunday Feb 18th 3pm, United Church of Northfield, 58 South Main St

"The Dog River Trio" (Lillian Broderick-Soprano, Nessa Rabin- Mezzo-soprano, Alison Cerutti-Piano) is planning a benefit performance of Pergolesi's Stabat Mater

Stabat Mater can be translated as "the sorrowful mother was standing," an image befitting the thousands of grieving mothers of Gaza young and old who have lost their children in this brutal assault.

This benefit seeks to raise money to support the people of Gaza who have been enduring a ceaseless and savage attack by Israel with the active support of President Biden and the U.S. for over 115 days. Almost 30,000 people have died, more than two thirds of them women and children, tens of thousands more lie uncounted under the rubble, and schools, hospitals, housing, water and sewage treatment plants have been systematically destroyed. The entire population of 2.3 million has been displaced and those still alive, including newborns, children and the sick and elderly, are living outside in the cold and dying of hunger and infectious disease. This is a genocide.

We stand with the people of Palestine and all people of conscience and demand a Ceasefire Now!

We aim to raise money for the Middle East Children's Alliance which has been on the ground in Gaza for two decades and is there now, supplying food, water and medicines through its staff and many volunteers.
