The T&V Choir Welcomes You!
The Town and Village Synagogue Adult Choir and Junior Singers are led by Cantor Shayna Postman.
If you love to sing beautiful Jewish music, join the Town and Village Synagogue Choir!
In expressing Jewish identity through traditional and contemporary Jewish music, participants in our choirs help strengthen our community’s connections to each other.
Children in 2nd grade and older are invited to join the Junior Singers!
Made up of volunteers, each year our choirs look forward to welcoming new members.
Singing together a great way to stay connected to the community in a way that is both fun for participants and functional to our Synagogue. Choir members form strong bonds to one another and their participation enhances the quality of our services on the High Holidays, at our annual Cantor Louis Moss Memorial Concert, on Shabbat Shirah, and throughout the year at such events as T&V’s Musical Purim Spiel, and the Downtown Kehillah’s Holocaust commemoration.
Rehearsals
Rehearsals for our adult choir take place on Tuesday evenings (unless otherwise indicated below), at 7 PM in the Kleiman classroom on the second floor of the Synagogue building.
See below for the 2013-14 rehearsal schedule and performance dates.
While singing in the choir is a lot of fun, since our repertoire includes a range of music from more simple to more elaborate pieces, members of the choir take rehearsal attendance seriously. They are expected to really learn the music (with the help of the cantor and other choir members), to come prepared to work hard at rehearsals (with a little bit of time to shmooze), to arrive on time and with a smile.
Veteran choir members are invited to sing with us on Shabbat Shirah, and are asked to attend the two rehearsals prior to Shabbat Shirah. They are also welcome to sing with us during services when choir members sing informally with the cantor.
Since are always looking for new choir members with whom to share this experience, please invite any talented Sopranos, Altos, Tenors or Basses to join us. August is the best time of year to join the choir. Please note that only synagogue members (or paying guests) can sing in the High Holiday services.
