Welcoming Shabbat with Adon Olam at Houston's Congregation Emanu El

Tonight we welcome Shabbat with a rendition of Uzi Hitman's version of Adon Olam. This performance is by Cantor Rollin Simmons at Houston's Congregation Emanu El, a Reform synagogue in Houston, Texas with over 1700 families.

Cantor Simmons sang with the Zamir Chorale of Boston, performing locally and internationally, as well as a cantorial soloist serving congregations in the Boston area when she decided to pursue cantorial school.

At Emanu El, her roles include music director, worship leader, teacher, pastor, life cycle officiant, youth choir director, concert producer, and conversion mentor. She is grateful to work with an inspiring clergy team and staff to enrich the lives of the Jewish community and beyond.

Enjoy, and Shabbat shalom!
