AOSA 2013 Conference Highlights - Part 7

Perhaps the most engaging and memorable moment was sharing with participants on Thursday afternoon.  I shared my love of Jewish and Hebrew music to over 150 participants in those sessions.  We sang traditional canons and children's singing games as well as danced "Ve David" and "Zemer Atik", two traditional Israeli dances.  Participants included teachers from around the world.  What a wonderful chance to make music with the talented attendees of the AOSA Professional Development Conference in Denver!
