Today we welcome Shabbat with a medley of Shabbat songs by Israeli singer Bat Ella and Cantor Azi Schwartz of New York's Park Avenue Synagogue.
The medley includes Shalom Aleichem, Lecha Dodi, V'Shamru, a Hebrew version of Sabbath Prayer from Fiddler on the Roof, and Havdalah.
Nusach America was a World Premiere Tribute concert in Tel Aviv dedicated to the rich and varied musical culture world of North American Jewry.
Bat Ella said she learns Talmud and Tanach (Hebrew Bible), says Modeh Ani (the prayer upon arising) in the morning and the Shema prayer when she goes to sleep. She also attends a Conservative synagogue near her home. She said she is incredibly proud of her Judaism, and believes it’s a source of wisdom that makes her a better human being.
Enjoy, and Shabbat shalom!
