Torah Trope with Mallory Bustow
Starting May 5th; Thursdays noon to 1:00 pm ZOOM & IN-PERSON at the HEA library
Learn to read (leyn) Torah! We will learn about why Torah is read with cantillation (trope), and then learn the trope itself. Each student will learn a short (3-4 verse) aliyah to read at Shabbat morning services in late 2021 or early 2022 (recordings will be provided for studying).
