Kol Nashim - Jerusalem Shelter

Since its founding in 2013 by Music Director Leah Peer, Kol Nashim, the women’s choir of the Colorado Hebrew Chorale, has used music to raise awareness and funds for survivors of domestic violence in Colorado and in Israel. Each May the group has put on a concert benefitting Woman to Woman's Jerusalem Shelter for Battered Women, until COVID-19 brought choral activities to a halt in March 2020 A desire to support the Shelter has motivated the women of Kol Nashim to rehearse virtually since November 2020, and to create two beautiful virtual choral recordings which are being released to raise funds this year. We present the premiere of a new adaptation for women's choir of Debbie Friedman’s L’Chi Lach (Take Yourself Out), and the world premiere of Nili Abrahamsson’s Baruch She’asani Isha (Blessed Who Made Me a Woman). The premiere of this pre-recorded event will be on Mother’s Day, Sunday, May 9, 2021 4pm EDT, 2pm MDT, 11pm Israel time The fundraiser will remain active until June 9, 2021 All donations will be matched by an anonymous supporter. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t1ZNPk3WUNQ
