In its Copernic and Beaugrenelle synagogues, JEM maintains the rich tradition of “consistorial” liturgical music. Apart from the JEM Copernicus Liturgical Choir, a professional choir that performs at JEM Copernicus services throughout the year (Shabbat and festivals), there are three JEM amateur choirs (two based at Copernicus, one at Beaugrenelle). They are all mixed 4-part choirs (sopranos, altos, tenors, basses).
