wanted a more traditional type of
entertainment. She insisted that the
national Jewish teen chorus regale
her and her guests. So a contingent
from Hazamir came and sang tradi-

melodies, including

The experience was
powerful, said
Matthew Lazar, the
founder and director
of the Zamir Chorale
Foundation, which is
the parent organiza-
tion of Hazamir and
Zamir, the national
adult Jewish chorus.
"It was very fulfilling
to hear and see the
tremendous effect
that the experience
had not only on the
listeners and the fam-

as well.
"At the same time,
everybody under-

motivation: Bringing
unity through the art
of Jewish music," he
says.

bat mitzvah appearance for New
York City-based Hazamir, but the
group appears regularly in senior cit-
i zens' homes, during holidays and at
s pecial events. "Cities love to see the
u nity and entertaining for the
teens," says Lazar.
Hazamir is the 'brainchild of Lazar,

Marsha Bryan Edelman, the
national director of Hazamir, said it
was started by Lazar to "bring
together adults to sing together out-

first gathered teen-agers to sing in
1987; the group was•officially given
the title of Haza-mir in 1993.
