Our Story.
Kol Connection responds to the Jewish pluralistic cause by creating community through music.
Music connects people spiritually and emotionally. It brings them back to specific communal and meaningful moments throughout their lives, and music itself can bridge divides.
Pluralistic Jewish community allows various sub-groups of Jewish identifying people to engage on the premise of being members of a unified Am Yisrael (Nation or people of Israel). This occurs through religious practice, ritual, cultural experiences, Jewish study, and conversation.
Our founder, Sasha Dominguez, wanted to curate community merging music and Jewish Pluralism. Kol Connection is that community.
Who We Are.

Sasha resides in Los Angeles, CA. She holds two master’s degrees from Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion in Jewish Education and Jewish Nonprofit Management. During school she created a curriculum on the evolution of Israeli culture through music and researched Jewish pluralism through music community. This research led to the founding of Kol Connection.
