WJC’s Cantorial Intern

Marc Szechter is excited to return to Westchester this year as WJC’s cantorial intern. He grew up in Hartsdale and attended Schechter Westchester and discovered his love for Jewish music while participating in HaZamir: The International Jewish Teen Choir in high school. Marc graduated from Muhlenberg College in Allentown, Pennsylvania in 2022 with BA in Jewish studies and music composition, and he was named a semi-finalist in the Fulbright Program. After spending a year learning at Yeshivas Tiferes Bachurim in Morristown, New Jersey, Marc began his cantorial studies at the Jewish Theological Seminary in the fall of 2023.
