The Yakar-Choir was founded in 2005 by Nurth Cohn. The choir consists of 26 Jewish orthodox female and male singers. The repertoire ranges from liturgical music with emphasis on Lewandowski to modern interpretations of traditional and Israeli compositions.
Most performances are taking place at regular intervals in the choir’s homebase, the Yakar community center in Jerusalem. However – as an outstanding event the choir has experienced a concert in Mai 2008 in Basel, taken place on the occasion of the celebration of the Jom Jeruschalajim.
