The Jewish Folk Chorus of San Francisco is in our 99th season of singing Yiddish, Hebrew, Russian, and Ladino songs for audiences in the Bay Area. Currently our chorus consists of two overlapping groups. Our full chorus sings in harmony with piano accompaniment. Our Zingeray ensemble performs in unison. Participation in this group does not require attendance at regular rehearsals. The full chorus is led by our choral director, Lisa Sargent, with piano accompaniment by Inara Morgenstern. Ami Goodman leads the Zingeray Ensemble.
