The Jerusalem Youth Chorus is far more than a music ensemble. We are building a youth movement of Palestinians and Israelis raising our voices for peace, justice, inclusion and equality. Singing together creates a container for us to have hard conversations that transform the way we see ourselves, one another, and the world around us. We weave our stories into powerful performances that inspire vision and action for a shared future.
