Join us as we welcome Cantor Becky Mann to Congregation B’nai Israel, October 18–20, 2024! Becky Mann serves as the Assistant Cantor of Temple Israel of Westport, CT. When not at Temple Israel, she serves as a touring Artist in Residence, sharing her original music and soulful prayer-leading with Jewish communities around the country. A composer, guitarist, and cantor, she has been called “one of the brightest voices of a new generation of Jewish songwriters carrying our tradition forward in new and exciting ways.” Originally from Las Vegas, she received a Bachelor’s of Arts in Jewish Sacred Music from Indiana University and a Masters of Sacred Music from the Debbie Friedman School of Sacred Music at Hebrew Union College — Jewish Institute of Religion in New York, where she was ordained as a cantor in 2023. Her passion for creating community through music and meaningful worship has inspired her work as both a cantor and composer.
