Musical Mitzvah

Members and non-members alike are invited to join us as we take our music to the streets, visiting the sick and the elderly.

We sing a large number of old popular favorites that inspire our audiences to participate in singing, clapping, and even dancing. This includes Yiddish classics like “My Yiddishe Mama” and “Take Me Out to the Ball Game” (in Yiddish) to memorable secular hits like “Heart of My Heart” and “Swanee”. During our holiday visits after the High Holy Days and around Hanukkah, Purim, Passover, and Shavuot, we spice up our performances with participatory Jewish melodies and medleys related to relevant holiday music.

Choristers and soloists of all levels of ability are welcome. No Hebrew knowledge or musical background is required. For the Musical Mitzvah tour, it is the power of your enthusiasm, smile, and joyful spirit that matter.

If you are interested in joining us for rehearsals or performances, please contact Cantor Dan Singer at  dsinger@swfs.org or 212-877-4050, ext. 237.
