One Night Choir

No experience. No audition. No commitment. All ages. Free.

Experience the magic of singing with a group. No pressure to be perfect, just have fun making music and maybe meet some new friends. Join song leaders Kelly and Mike for a fun community event!

Song:  59th Street Bridge Song (Feelin’ Groovy) by Paul Simon

How it works: over the course of the month leading up to the event, listen to the song on Spotify, Amazon Music, or any platform you want.

Sing in the car. Sing in the shower. Sing doing chores. Embarrass your children singing during carpool.

You don’t need to memorize it or know it by heart.
We will have lyric sheets for you when you arrive.

At the event, we’ll start with a fun vocal warm up and then spend about an hour learning and rehearsing the song. After a short break, we’ll practice a couple more times, and then perform the song. We’ll film it and post it on the JCC website you so you can share it with friends.

Registration required.

The One Night Choir aims to celebrate Jewish contributions to popular music by choosing songs that were written or made famous by Jews.

This project was made possible by an IGNITE! Jewish Rochester Community Impact Grant funded by the Jewish Federation of Greater Rochester’s Annual Campaign for Jewish Needs.
