Welcome to the home page of Keshet Chorale. The Keshet Chorale is a Washington D.C Jewish Community choral group, which was founded in April, 1998 and is comprised of men and women from the Washington D.C./Maryland/Virginia Jewish Community.

Keshet is a Hebrew name meaning rainbow and it reflects the varied backgrounds and professions of its members as well as the colorful spectrum of our repertoire of Jewish music, which includes choral arrangements of modern and traditional Israeli, Hassidic, and liturgical songs.

Cantor Aaron Marcus is the founder and director of the Keshet Chorale.
