Beth Styles will lead our annual summer Kumzitz, an unforgettable evening of Israeli music and community. Bring your singing voice and meet us under the tent at the JCCMW! Drinks and desserts will be served. We hope to see (and hear) you there!
This event is free of charge, but registration is required.
Beth Styles is an award-winning composer, producer, and artist whose work has been celebrated in diverse houses of worship across the country and performed by some of the great artists and cantors of our time.
Through the years, Beth has written and produced an extensive catalogue of original music across many genres, working with beloved local artists and celebrities including Diana Ross. However, her roots live in inspirational, Jewish, and interfaith music. Beth’s writing has been described as deeply soulful, with a unique ability to connect to the heart of a prayer; marrying liturgy to melodies that ring true—from contemporary settings to four-part traditional choral harmonies, as well as modern, rhythmic, catchy, “get in your ‘kishkes’ songs.”
Beth’s production studio is located in Stamford, where she recently wrote and produced the music, as well as collaborated on arrangements and lyrics with Neshama Carlebach for Neshama’s latest CD , Believe. Currently, Beth is recording her new CD, and appearing as artist in residence across the country, partnering with communities who love and celebrate new Jewish music.
As founder and music director of the New World Chorus, Stamford’s community inspirational choir, Beth continues to produce meaningful events throughout the year. She is also the creator of the Living Voice Project, which brings music to life for people living with a form of dementia, such as Alzheimer’s.
