Welcoming Shabbat With Adon Olam - From Russia - Fourth of a Series


It's becoming a tradition at Jewish Humor Central to get in the Shabbat mood with a version of Adon Olam as it's sung around the world.  In the last three weeks we shared renditions from Hungary, Brazil, and Argentina.  This week it's Russia's turn, by way of Israel.

International opera star Yevgeni Shapovalov – called “the Israeli Pavarotti” by the media in Israel – formed the THREE TENORS FROM ISRAEL in 2005 with his acclaimed operatic colleagues Felix Livshitz and Vladislav Goray. All originally from the former Soviet Union, Shapovalov and Livshitz now make their homes in Israel, while Goray remains a Ukrainian citizen. Since their 2005 debut, they have given over 100 sold-out concerts in Israel and Europe, delighting audiences with their breathtaking performances, tinged with humor and nostalgia.

Shabbat Shalom!  Enjoy!
