HaZamir: The International Jewish Teen Choir

Before HaZamir, I had no connection to Jewish identity. After standing with 400 other Jewish singers on stage at the MET, I felt something I've never felt before. #jewishpride

Never have I felt so much pride and joy while singing these powerful words at Festival and on stage.

Alumni Spotlight

Dena Kaye-Phillips

HaZamir Providence, Class of ‘10

I've been singing with Mati Lazar and the Zamir Choral Foundation for more than half my life, first through HaZamir and HaZamir Alumni, and for the past 8 years as a member of Zamir Noded. Being a part of HaZamir has shaped my Jewish identity and my life in so many ways. It has given me a powerful connection to Jewish history and sacred texts, an outlet to express creativity and strive for the highest standard of music-making, and many of my most meaningful relationships (including my husband!) Thank you, HaZamir!
