Welcoming Shabbat with a Lecha Dodi Mashup by 15 Boston Area Cantors

JArts, in collaboration with MASSCreative, the Massachusetts statewide advocacy group for the cultural sector, created Arts Matter Shabbat, now known as Creativity Connects Shabbat – an annual day to collectively advocate for the arts.

Last November, 15 cantors from the Boston area joined in a virtual choir to sing five versions of Lecha Dodi, the traditional song from the Kabbalat Shabbat Friday evening service -- Ashkenazic, Sephardic, Yemenite, Contemporary, and Hasidic.

Here is the mashup of Lecha Dodi, featuring the Boston area cantors, as a part of the Creativity Connects Shabbat production. 

Enjoy, and Shabbat shalom!
