Come and Sing with SingPositive: Intergenerational Community Jamaica Plain Choir

Last updated on February 11, 2024

SingPostive is an intergenerational community choir based in Jamaica Plain, directed by Lexi Ugelow and Lysander Jaffe — and community members are encouraged to participate.

Joel Sindelar founded the choir in 2012, and it has since grown into a vibrant community where singers of all ages make music together. We sing fun, eclectic music from many different styles, from folk to world to musical theatre and R&B, and we offer musical programming for the whole family, including Kids Choir, ukulele class, and supervised playground time for younger children during the Adult Choir portion of rehearsal. Kids younger than 3 join for free!
