Rochelle Zell student is a Grand Prize Winner!

A standing ovation and a hero's welcome awaited junior Marc Luban today in tefillah, our resident rock star having tied for first place in Jewish Rock Radio’s Jewish Talent Search! Watch his moving performance in Tefillah this morning here.
 
This is Jewish Rock Radio’s first nationwide competition, designed to identify emerging talent in the Jewish community. The seven grand prize winners will be awarded a private mentorship from an internationally recognized Jewish celebrity recording artist, a professional recording studio session, exposure throughout all of North America, and a full scholarship to attend the 2019 Jewish Song Leader Bootcamp National Conference.
 
Marc tells a reporter, “Each carefully crafted masterpiece of Jewish music carries not only the meaning its creator intended, but also brings with it the enormous power of our timeless traditions and teachings, which makes it possible for each and every individual to feel the voice of every song in their soul. Jewish music has impacted my life because it brought me closer to my community and to communities outside of mine and showed me new and incredible ways to connect to my religion and identity in this ever-changing modern age.”  Marc adds, "It's great that I won, and I'm really looking forward to the music conference, but what really makes me happy is that I was able to share my message with the world."
