Worship Leader. Consultant. Performer.

My experience at the Songleading Fellowship retreat ended up being one of the best experiences of my life! It truly amazes me how Rosalie could just start singing, and the entire room of fellows would just join in to make this big, beautiful sound. It was SO AMAZING!
The retreat was one of the best things I've ever done.

If only Rosalie’s book “Songleading: A Work of Art” existed when I was first forging my way into this world. So much of what I learned over the course of years of trial and error would have been available to me in a handy paperback.
"Songleading: A Work of Art "is a complete curriculum for the new and experienced songleader in any situation…whether you work at a camp, teach religious school, or lead groups of people in song in religious or secular settings, you’ll find a myriad of useful tips and foundational ideas to help you do your work.
If you’re a teacher of songleading, you now have a textbook available to you to work from and suggest to your students.
This work is sacred, and this book is an exceptional resource to help reinforce what you do, and teach you some new things too. It should be in the library of every leader of song in every setting. I wish I had it a lot sooner…but I’m glad I have it now.

Shabbat Shira
Held in the fall at URJ's beautiful OSRUI camp in Wisconsin, this adult Jewish music retreat brings together those who love to teach and lead music, and those who love to sing, for three days of community, learning, and Jewish music. Shabbat Shira provides an opportunity to refresh and rejuvenate through relationship building and joyful singing.
Emerging Songleader Development
As part of her work with URJ, Rosalie conceived and leads the URJ Teen Songleading Fellowship, which invites young Jewish songleaders to develop their songleading skills, deepen their knowledge of repertoire and communal singing technique, and build meaningful leadership and relationship opportunities in their congregations, camps, and communities. More details here.
She is also the primary teacher of head songleaders for URJ's summer camping system, and trains all teen songleaders who work with any camp through Sing Unto God's Summer Sparks program.
