Today would have been JCC’s spring choir concert. I am sad that we aren’t able to come together one last time as a choir, but thankful for the memories we shared the rest of the year. Stay tuned - my kids have been putting something together to share with friends and family.

A video my middle schoolers put together about why to join choir- please share with any incoming middle school families! youtube.com/watch?v=DOqqEN…

See you all at 2:00 on Zoom for our awards ceremony!

The JCC Concert Choir members individually recorded their parts of "When We Were Young", which would have been featured in the 2020 Pops Concert. Using headphones and my amateur editing skills, we were able to recreate what this song may have sounded like: m.youtube.com/watch?v=zyxJD0…

Looking forward to seeing everyone in choir again! It’s been too long!
