Adon Olam Around the World: A Special Tribute to American Independence
We've been following the trail of Adon Olam, the traditional song that ends the Shabbat morning service, as it appears in new forms in countries around the world.
After singing along with congregations in Brazil, Budapest, Israel, and throughout the USA, today we're taking you to Winter Park, an Orlando, Florida suburb to see the cantor and children of Temple Israel as they sang Adon Olam last week to the tune of America the Beautiful in tribute to our nation's observance of Independence Day on the Fourth of July.
Enjoy and Shabbat shalom!
