Music has always been an essential, defining part of Havurah Shalom. It links us together in heart and in spirit. From our beginnings in 1978, we have drawn from the rich and diverse kaleidoscope of Jewish music and have sought to bring melodies to our services that open the heart and inspire meaningful prayer. We’ve managed to accomplish this through the creativity, generosity, and many talents of our lay music leaders in our congregation.

Our community invites and encourages participation. If you’re interested, you can learn. If you have knowledge, you can share and teach. In this way, we grow together, building our pool of talent from within and connecting with one another. 

Our Shabbat School relies on the talents of our enthusiastic parent teachers to share music with our classes. Our Kabbalat Shabbat services on Friday night and our Shabbat morning services are co-led by both congregants and our rabbi. Holiday celebrations, community events, and spiritual life are all opportunities for us to become involved and share our music. We hope the music linked below will help you connect with all of these opportunities at Havurah.
