Zamir performs music spanning hundreds of years, four continents, and nearly every musical style. This fifty-member chorus has a far-reaching fan base through its twenty-five recordings and its tours throughout the USA, Europe, and Israel.
Now in its fifty-fourth year under the artistic direction of its founder Joshua Jacobson, Zamir maintains a busy schedule of diverse concerts and educational presentations.
Zamir’s documentary film, Jewish Voices Return to Poland, has been shown on public television stations across the US; and Zamir was honored to perform at the UN General Assembly for its first International Day to Commemorate Victims of the Holocaust.
Zamir has commissioned and premiered many works, including Robbie Solomon’s Mi Ma’amakim (1986), Charles Osborne’s oratorios Souls on Fire (1998), Kings and Fishermen (2002), and Like Wildflowers, Suddenly (2008); and Nick Page’s Anu Sharim (2022).
