Music

Temple Emanu-el has a strong music tradition.

Our volunteer choir, led by Judy Adelman Gershon, has been active since Temple’s Emanu-El's inception.

Their impressive repertoire includes Jewish liturgical, Ladino and Israeli music composed by European, American and contemporary Canadian composers. The choir participates in services on High Holidays, Festivals and presents special Erev Shabbat musical programs. 

Our religious school curriculum also has a strong musical component, which will be further enhanced in the coming years.

You've heard our wonderful Temple Emanu-El choir, you've admired our ruach (spirit) and beautiful sound, and you've noticed the look of joy on the singers' faces. But did you know that we are always looking for new choir members?? If you love to sing and you are free most Tuesday evenings, talk to Judy Adelman Gershon about trying out our choir! We follow strict COVID protocols designed by our COVID team doctors. It just might be the best decision you'll make this year!
