Cantors' Concert Saturday, Dec. 14, 2019, 7:00pm
"Hadeish Yameinu K’kedem:
Renewing Our Days as of Old"

Old meets new in this musical experience with CAI’s own Cantorial Soloist Nichole Chorny and her sister-in-law Rabbi Cantor Hillary Chorny of Temple Beth Am in Los Angeles, CA. Immerse yourself in the nostalgia of your musical favorites interwoven with contemporary compositions that highlight the best of what’s new in the Jewish music world.

Nichole Chorny has been the Cantorial Soloist at Congregation Anshei Israel since 2014. She holds a degree from the University of Arizona in Music Education with an emphasis in Choral Music. A native Tucsonan, Nichole has been active in the Tucson Jewish community as a service leader and Jewish educator since 2006.

Rabbi Cantor Hillary Chorny completed her cantorial investiture, rabbinical ordination, and a Masterʼs degree in Sacred Music at the Jewish Theological Seminary before joining the staff of Temple Beth Am in 2014. Raised in San Diego, CA, she graduated American University in Washington, D.C. with a B.A. in Jewish studies and a minor in vocal jazz performance. After working as a Judaics instructor and music director in various Jewish communities and camps, Hillary pursued her dream of becoming a cantor. In time, she was inspired by her teachers and family to also pursue the rabbinate.

RSVP requested for concert. Suggested donation $18 per person.
