››P'nai Or Chant Group

The P’nai Or Chant group has been meeting most First Sundays of the Month for since 2004. This began as a “requirement” for Rabbi Shefa Gold’s Kol Zimra Chant Leaders “training” program and has become an important event for many of us. It is a time to gather for chanting prayer, some meditation, some learning of new chants, and some more spontaneous use of our voices. While we primarily focus on chants developed by Rabbi Shefa, we also draw from other chant leaders and some of my own niggunim. This is accompanied by an electronic and/or accoustic shruti, occasionally a little drumming, rattling and movement. After about an hour of this, we have a brief closing circle, then transition to more social time with a potluck.

This is open to all members of P’nai Or and could include others in the community who express interest.
