Welcoming Shabbat with Adon Olam Sung by Cantor Gustavo Gitlin as an Argentinian Tango

In February we posted a version of Adon Olam sung by Gustavo Gitlin to Bob Dylan's Blowin' in the Wind. Gitlin, the cantor of Congregation Tifereth Israel , the oldest continuously operating Jewish congregation on Long Island, with roots traced back to the Civil War era. 

Located in Glen Cove, on Long Island's North Shore, it is led by Rabbi Irwin Huberman, a graduate of the Academy of Jewish Religion, a rabbinical seminary that embraces all Jewish denominations.

Cantor Gitlin comes from a family of musicians and his grandfather was a cantor. He moved with his family to Glen Cove from Buenos Aires, Argentina in 2003.

Today we welcome Shabbat with a more traditional version as Cantor Gitlin returns to his roots in Buenos Aires and sings Adon Olam as a pair of tango dancers perform Argentina's national dance.

Enjoy, and Shabbat shalom!
