Musical Shabbat at Temple Emanuel

Laurel Shader, Neighbor

Come welcome Shabbat at
Temple Emanuel of Greater New Haven. On Friday, May 9 at 8 PM, Rabbi Michael
Farbman will lead a joyous Kabbalat Shabbat service with musical accompaniment
by the Temple Emanuel Band and Children’s Choir.

The TE band was created in
2009 to celebrate Rabbi Farbman’s installation at Temple Emanuel. Made up of TE
members from middle school to retirement age, the band, in various iterations,
plays at selected Shabbat services and festivals. The band’s repertoire
includes contemporary and traditional tunes arranged by Laurel Shader.


The TE Children’s Choir includes
students from the Religious School who sing contemporary tunes arranged for
treble voices by Anna Zonderman.  In

addition to Shabbat services, the band and choir also come together for TE’s
annual celebration of the life and music of 
the late Debbie Friedman.
