Shabbat Shirah with Tizmoret

February 8, 2025    
11:00 am - 2:00 pm

Come to the Queens College a cappella group’s concert after Kiddush and keep the music going!

Shabbat Shirah this year features, as always, the Song of the Sea during the Torah reading and then what will be an engaging performance by one of the top university a cappella groups.

Tizmoret has a great repertoire of sacred, spirited Jewish and Israeli music as well as popular tunes arranged in fantastic, one-of-a-kind ways.

Our tradition is to invite a musical group on the Sabbath of Song, the Shabbat when we read the Song of the Sea from the Torah, which has a special tune. The Song of the Sea is a unique section of the Torah; we rise when it is chanted and there are even times when the congregation sings during the Torah reading.

Join us for this special musical engagement.

Tizmoret (Hebrew for “band” or “orchestra”) is Queens College Hillel’s professional Jewish a
cappella group. Directed by Daniel Henkin since 1996, this nationally-acclaimed group draws singers from throughout the New York City area, and continues to take Jewish collegiate a cappella to the next level, performing classic Jewish melodies, American pop music and contemporary Israeli tunes across the country!
