About the Seattle Jewish Chorale
Founded in 2008, the Seattle Jewish Chorale is a volunteer, non-profit, multigenerational, mixed, auditioned community choir. Our mission is to engage audiences of all ages and backgrounds with the beauty and diversity of the Jewish experience by performing works from across the spectrum of the Jewish choral repertoire. Through our educational and entertaining performances, Seattle Jewish Chorale preserves, celebrates, and advances the cultural heritage of world Jewry, and fosters unity, understanding, and respect within the Jewish community and between Jews and the wider community.
Seattle Jewish Chorale seeks to enrich and expand the musical and cultural experience of our members.
Seattle Jewish Chorale is a non-discriminatory organization and welcomes all participants. We believe that music can unite people and bring about “tikkun olam” (a healing of the world). Membership in the Chorale is open to qualified singers without regard to religion, creed, race, color, national origin, sex, sexual orientation, marital status, or disability.
Our repertoire includes songs in Hebrew, English, Yiddish and Ladino, in a wide variety of styles and genres: sacred and secular; a cappella and accompanied; classical, jazz, folk and pop. The Chorale performs annual Hanukkah and Spring concerts and community/outreach performances (e.g. NW Folklife Festival, Yom HaShoah memorial), as well as in concerts with other choirs such as Choir of the Sound, the Total Experience Gospel Choir and Kol N’Shamah, the choir of Temple Beth Hatfiloh in Olympia.
