In memory of TABC 9th grader Eyal Kinderlehrer s grandfather, a group of TABC music students, under the direction of their music teacher, created and just released a single called ‘Dor L’Dor.’ The project was part of TABC’s new music production program, Studio 1600. ‘Dor L’Dor’ is the first of ten tracks to be released for Studio 1600’s first-ever album, which features three covers and seven original songs, the latter of which were written together by TABC students and Jacob Spadaro, the director of the TABC Music Conservatory.
