Welcoming Shabbat with L'cha Dodi at Sinai Temple in Los Angeles
Last year we started a new Friday tradition at Jewish Humor Central of posting a new version of L'cha Dodi, Shalom Aleichem, or Adon Olam to welcome Shabbat. Some of the melodies are new, some are familiar, and some are sung in places that you wouldn't expect.
This week we didn't have to travel too far to find an energetic version of L'cha Dodi sung at Sinai Temple, the first Conservative congregation in Southern California.
This version of L'cha Dodi, led by Cantor Marcus Friedman with music by Daniel Raijman, was taken from a live recording on Shabbat Shirah, Friday January 22nd 2016 at Sinai Temple in Los Angeles.
Enjoy and Shabbat shalom!

Love the music and spirit reflected from the music. It bring in Shabbat in a special way.
