About Micah Hendler

Micah Hendler is the Founder and Artistic Director of the Jerusalem Youth Chorus (JYC), an Israeli-Palestinian music and dialogue project raising youth voices for peace, justice, inclusion, and equality from the TED stage to America’s Got Talent. In addition to his ongoing bridge-building work in Jerusalem, Micah has brought his JYC experience back home, using music to collaborate with multiple organizations working to build bridges across American divides. Micah was listed as a Forbes 30 Under 30 for Music in 2017, has a degree in Music and International Studies from Yale (where he sang with the Whiffenpoofs and many other ensembles) and brings decades of musical experience from different global traditions to this work. He has studied Community Singing and CircleSinging with GRAMMY-winning composers Ysaye Barnwell and Roger Treece, and uses these techniques to open up the concept of who is allowed to sing and what singers can do together.
