[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Adas Israel in Cleveland Park has a choir -- can't recall if they have an organ but they might. You could call and ask. Honestly the choir was one of the reasons we left, but to each their own. :) [/quote] Adas has a choir? Surprising for a conservative shul, particularly one that I thought was fairly traditional. [/quote] Though a choir is untraditional, it presents few (no?) halachic problems. I have been in Orthodox synagogues with (all male) choirs. Their are conflicting rulings on the use of musical instruments on shabbat and yom tov in the C movement. The position allowing instruments is more common on the west coast. Adas is the only east coast C shul I am aware of that allows it (though I am sure there are others) [/quote] They had it for the High Holidays, though this is going back 10 years so perhaps they no longer do. Not sure if they had it the rest of the time. [/quote]
