Ari Slater will be lifting his voice as part of the Reveille Men’s Chorus when they present “Bless Our Show(tunes)” this weekend.

Slater, office assistant at the Jewish Federation of Southern Arizona, says he started out singing for fun at the Thursday night piano bar at the Dusty Monk, a downtown pub, but joined Reveille with the encouragement of some of its members. He and his partner, Sean Corin joined the chorus in August.

“Bless Our Show(tunes)” will feature two “Fiddler on the Roof” selections.

“The dancing and energy for ‘L’Chaim’ is a blast,” says Slater, “but Reveille does a phenomenal job covering ‘Sabbath Prayer’ and I’m so excited for us to show it off at our concert.”

Performances are Saturday, May 18 at 7:30 p.m. and Sunday, May 19 at 2 p.m., at the Temple of Music and Art, 330 S. Scott Ave. Tickets, $20, can be purchased at www.reveillemenschorus.org.
