Kim Doron

In her capacity as Associate Cantor at Habonim, Kim leads synagogue services for the High Holidays, as well as for some of our Shabbat and holiday services throughout the year.

Kim has been delighting audiences with her singing since the age of 10. Accompanying herself on the guitar, she has performed at numerous venues across the United States and Canada, and has participated in many musical theatrical productions.

Kim also has many years of experience as a music teacher and children’s choir director. She led music programs at schools and day camps, and she served as the musical director on several March of the Living trips. Kim conducted the junior and senior glee clubs at the Leo Baeck Day School for many years before coming to Habonim and leading our youth choir for a number of years.

Kim comes from a very musical family. She is the daughter of world-renowned Cantor Paul Kowarsky, who served at Toronto’s Beth Tzedec Synagogue for over 20 years. Cantor Kowarsky has composed and recorded numerous liturgical works, which are sung the world over. https://paulkowarsky.ca/

Those who have attended Kim’s services or holiday programs at Habonim have had the joy of observing her ability to connect to children and adults alike with her warm personality and soulful singing. Congregation Habonim is thrilled to have Kim as part of our team of exceptionally talented vocalists, alongside Senior Cantor Rabbi Aviva Rajsky.
