My favorite time to listen to recorded music is in the last few hours before Shabbat or a holiday. As I scramble to wash dishes, iron clothes, make phone calls and finalize tune selections for services, Jewish music in the background helps me calm down and enter the mindset that I seek during holy times.
I’ve created a playlist for you of mostly new melodies that I’ve been listening to prepare for the Yamim Nora’im (High Holidays) this year.
You can listen HERE. Many of these songs will be featured in our services alongside the classic tunes that I love singing with you year after year. I hope this list gets you in the mindset of forgiveness, compassion and communal care.
Shabbat Shalom and L’Shana Tova. I look forward to seeing you soon, B”H.
