If the idea of going to Israel walking where Jesus walked seems extreme, next week there's an opportunity to hear the music that Jesus heard.

And the destination is the Shamblin Theatre on the Lipscomb University Campus.

The San Antonio Vocal Arts Ensemble will present ''Ancient Echoes,'' recreating ancient music of the holy land including prayers of Jesus sung in Aramaic, liturgical music that would have been heard in the temple and music that would have been heard in Herod's palace.

The concert will be at 8 p.m. Thursday. Tickets are $7. For more information, call 269-1000.
