The Multicultural "Shani" Choir

The singers of the "Shani" Girls' Choir, aged 13-18 are Jewish, Christian and Muslim girls from the towns and villages of the Central Galilee.

The choir represents the "Mifne" project which is supported by the Maestro Zubin Mehta and The Israeli Philharmonic Orchestra.

The girls rehearse twice a week at the Jezreel Valley Center for the arts under the baton of Ms. Alexandra Kim, and they perform frequently in schools, at cultural events and at regional, national and international music concerts and conferences.

Their repertoire includes classical and folk music, as well as songs in Hebrew and Arabic, many of which have been arranged especially for the choir.

The "Shani" choir has been performed in England, Germany, Norway, Paris, Belgium, France, Holland, Italy, Denmark and the United States.
