Bon's musical experience ranges from performance and extensive research in remote eastern European villages to performing with Olympia Dukakis in ACT's production of Hecuba. She has taught workshops in eastern European music for symphony choruses and folk ensembles, and has led chant workshops at National Jewish Meditation conferences, as well as for the local community in the San Francisco Bay Area. She serves as cantorial soloist for Kol Hadash, a Humanistic Jewish community in Albany, California.
