Jewish Prayer Music for Shabbat and Holidays: (Volume 1): Special Selections from Composer

Anthology of original songs composed for conservative and liberal synagogues on Shabbat and holidays. The traditional music blends themes of Russian, Hungarian, German, and other European traditions into contemporary Jewish American Liturgy. What makes the music incredibly unique is the composer. He is unlike most composers of the current day. His music is retrospective accented by a taste of popular and even Broadway styles. And, he plays by ear. His unusual use of Sephardic tones in D-flat major and B-flat minor is rarely found in untrained musicians. The sound is luscious, romantic, and provides perfect solos for tenors, altos, and sopranos. From his humble beginnings come this suddenly popular lyricist and composer, whose music now circulates nationwide among Jewish and non-Jewish houses of worship.
