Mary and Samuel Hamelsky Music Shabbat
Music from Shalshelet
April 24

Shalshelet, the Foundation for New Jewish Liturgical Music, seeks to foster the creation of original music and to expose wider audiences to innovations in Jewish religious music. Shalshelet’s mission is to use music to build bridges both within and outside the Jewish community. Shalshelet’s composers are drawn from across all Jewish denominations and the group disseminates new compositions without regard to the professional or lay status of the composers. Listen to the freshest sounds in Jewish music as Cantor Ott, Makhelat Anshe Emet, and Shirei Emet present the best of Music from Shalshelet.

Cabaret Night
Saturday, February 28 • 8:00 PM

Music is a very important part of worship at Anshe Emeth. And the talent of the singers and players that make it is definitely “a cut above.” Please join us for this first in a series of “cabaret nights” that will showcase our talent, anchored by Cantor Ott and the Awesome Band, singing and playing out in a non-liturgical setting. Hear Jewish and Israeli pop as well as selections from “The Great American Songbook,” many of whose composers were Jewish.

New Jersey Youth Choir Zimriyah
Sunday, March 29 • 3:00 PM

Join us as Anshe Emeth plays host to youth choirs from Reform and Conservative congregations in central and northern New Jersey. If you enjoy our Junior Choir, you will love the sound of other children’s choirs singing their hearts out and sharing their music traditions with each other.

Spring Concert: Simchat Zimrah
Saturday, May 16 • 7:30 PM

Share the exuberant joy of all three Anshe Emeth choirs and the Awesome Band when we celebrate The Greatest Night of Jewish Music EVER! After an entire year of services and special programs, we focus on the music and the singers and players who make it. It is Anshe Emeth music at its very best. Bring the entire mishpocha for this very special free evening of Havdalah, great music, and great desserts!
