Polina Shepherd is a lively, vivacious singer and choir leader with a knack for quickly transforming a group of singers into a musical community; Baghdad-born Yair Dalal, who specializes in Arab and Judeo-Arab music, led this year’s Middle East Music Ensemble, whose performances also reach out to refugees.
