This popular program draws singers every year from near and far who join with choir members and alumni to rehearse and sing choral music on a Sunday afternoon. As the Festival fell within the week of the presidential inauguration and International Holocaust Remembrance Day, both were represented in selections we learned and sang. Each year, we work with teachers who share their unique skills and experience with us. In addition to Hazzan Tasat, Caitlin McLaughlin, cantorial soloist at Oseh Shalom of Laurel, Maryland, was with us this year contributing her gifts as teacher and conductor.
