As its name implies (the phrase "Rosh Tov" in Hebrew connotes fun and a good atmosphere), this group has a Light, vivacious character alongside its serious professional aspirations. Its repertoire includes lots of rhythm: international and Israeli pop songs, Beatles, Gershwin, musicals - all arranged by Jeanne in five part harmony. Among its most successful performances to date: "Sealed With A Kiss" (2007, 2008), special tribute evenings to lyricists Yoram Teharlev and Shimrit Or (produced by the Rosh-HaAyin Municipality), second place in the choir competition "Kol Rishon" (Rishon LeZion, Succoth, 2008), and semi-final status in the "Zemer Lach Artzi" competition, 2010. We owe a special thank you to Patrick Kelly and Alex Eshed of "SingIsrael", who have coached us periodically along the way. Comments about "Rosh Tov" from the esteemed judges of the &qu...    less

Thou Lovely SOurce of True DeLight Dealing with Disappointment Every life needs aspirations—along with goals to help us achieve them. Our goals can Be like the banks of a river, guiding the flow of Our ambitions. Making plans and striving to accomplish them helps channel Our efforts and energies toward the things that matter most to us. But what about when we fail? How do we respond when, despite Our earnest efforts, we don’t quite reach those high aspirations? In short, how do we deal with disappointment? The natural response is to feel discOuraged, disheartened. It might seem that all Our planning and work were wasted. We may even question Our aspirations—were Our ...    less
