Music

Do you love to sing? Do you play an instrument? Join one of our ensembles!

The goal of music at Beth Tikvah is to:

• Inspire and enrich our worship life and program activities.
• Create musical social communities within the larger congregation.
• Provide opportunities for spiritual expression through music.
• Challenge ourselves and have fun together in a uniquely Jewish musical environment.

Congregational Singing

Beth Tikvah Congregation places much value on music and congregational singing. We sing a lot together in our services and programs. When the spirit moves you, raise your voice with our congregation, accompanied by guitar and other instruments; it is the sweetest music of all. If you are not inspired to sing, feel free to just sit back, relax, and listen.

We make the music come alive!

Beth Tikvah is part of a unique group of temples that base their musical excellence on volunteer members, rather than paid musicians. Our choral and instrumental performers are primarily our own volunteer members. We find that this creates a special musical environment for the our community.

Our ensembles have many standard pieces in their repertoire, and are always adding and rotating pieces in and out to match our temple's theme for the year, and to challenge the ensembles musically.

Our ensembles do not perform at every Friday evening service; instead we perform at special services, throughout the year.

If you or your children are interested in joining any of our ensembles, please contact Cantoral Leader; 847-885-4545 x105.
