Hanukkah Assembly Showcases Music Program

On Friday afternoon before winter break, students and parents gathered for an all-school Hanukkah assembly, which featured beautiful performances by the lower school band; middle school band; lower school chorus; middle school singing group, The Trebles; and sixth grade chorus. The music groups performed many songs including "Hava Nagila", "Get Back" by the Beatles, and—a chorus favorite—"Light a Candle for Peace." This was the first year all three singing groups sang together in a multi-age ensemble. “I think the students really enjoyed playing music for their peers,” says band director Ari Micich.

Says Debby Arzt-Mor, director of Jewish learning, “It was so meaningful to usher in the holiday prior to break by enjoying and supporting the many musical talents of our students. A huge thank you to [music teacher] Kim Lostetter and Ari Micich for their dedication to their students.” MORE PHOTOS
