We Stand With Israel

The Colorado Hebrew Chorale community has been united in support for Israel during the past two years. As we rejoice in the return of the last 20 living hostages from captivity, our hearts continue to ache alongside those who have not yet received the remains of their loved ones.

The Chorale's two choirs continue to rehearse and perform during this trying time, for it is what we do as musicians: through music we mourn and through music we continue to assert visions of a hopeful and more peaceful world.
