Shir Appeal

Shir Appeal is Tufts University’s only co-ed Jewish a cappella group. Founded in 1995 with assistance from the Jewish Agency, Shir Appeal is one of the nations’ oldest collegiate Jewish a cappella groups. They sing a mix of music including Israeli rock and pop, traditional and liturgical Jewish songs, and English songs with Jewish themes. Though based outside of Boston, Shir Appeal has toured throughout the US including New York, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Miami, and Southern Florida, as well as throughout New England and the Boston area. Shir Appeal has been featured on Best of College a cappella (BOCA) 4 times. It was the first non-secular a cappella group to be recognized on BOCA, and the only Jewish group to have ever been featured on it.

Famous quotes containing the word appeal:

    I don’t like comparisons with football. Baseball is an entirely different game. You can watch a tight, well-played football game, but it isn’t exciting if half the stadium is empty. The violence on the field must bounce off a lot of people. But you can go to a ball park on a quiet Tuesday afternoon with only a few thousand people in the place and thoroughly enjoy a one-sided game. Baseball has an aesthetic, intellectual appeal found in no other team sport.
    Bowie Kuhn (b. 1926)
