CD: LAHHS Choir 1981 – 1982


Album 1: We Are As Dreamers 

 “Song is the voice of the spirit.”

Everything about this album is new!

The music, arrangements and many of the lyrics are original.

The album represents the work of alumni and students of the Los Angeles Hebrew High School as we celebrate our 30th anniversary.

The songs are for you to sing at your dinner table, schools, camps and youth groups.

It is our hope that this album will add new spirit to the life of the Jewish people – through song.
