Susan Colin isnât afraid to try new things. In March, she left her position as cantorial soloist for Congregation NefeshSoul in Chandler to work solely as a visiting guest artist and artist in residence for various synagogues.
While Colin loved her years at NefeshSoul, this move is something she had been contemplating for some time. She described her departure ânot as a leaving but as a going to something new.â And Zoom played a role in making this an opportune time to make the transition.
She has always found that being open to âexperience and opportunitiesâ serves her well, she said. So when COVID-19 temporarily ended in-person gatherings, she was quick to adapt to virtual platforms, musically and professionally.
