Selichot Choral Service & Film, 20:00-00:15

Selichot is a beautiful way to bring yourself towards the High Holy Days and to enhance their spiritual impact. We come together on a Saturday evening to hear for the first time the sound of the High Holy Days and the poems which search our souls. Led by Cantor Tamara and the EHRS Choir with our Rabbis.

We will start the evening joining with Reform Jewish communities around the world through video technology to build a feeling of Jewish solidarity as we come to the end of a very challenging year for Jews everywhere.

We continue with the film ‘The Jazz Singer’. This 1980 update of the 1927 Al Jolson original is a musical tear jerker starring Neil Diamond. Will Yussel Rabinovitz follow his dreams and become a singer & songwriter in America, or will he follow his father’s dreams for him and be a Cantor in the Synagogue?

After a break for refreshments, at 23:00 we will begin our beautiful choral service led by Cantor Tamara, our Rabbis, and featuring the EHRS Choir, and an accomplished guest Cellist.
