Welcoming Shabbat with a Cappella Lecha Dodi by Pittsburgh Hillelujah
Hillelujah is a relatively new a cappella group established in 2015. The group is comprised of students from Carnegie Mellon University, University of Pittsburgh and Point Park.
Hillel Jewish University Center is currently conducting auditions for the Hillelujah a cappella group. All Jewish students from Pittsburgh colleges and universities are welcome to try out for the group.
In this video, Hillelujah sings one of the traditional melodies for Lecha Dodi, a hymn sung to welcome Shabbat every Friday night. The music is Leonard Cohen's Hallelujah and the arrangement is based on a Pentatonix video.
Sing along and Enjoy. Shabbat shalom!
