This year we are once again providing our members with a cd of music for the Days of Awe. These are melodies we’ll be singing and hearing during the Days of Awe this year. A few of them are old favorites, and a few are new additions. Cantorial soloist David Curiel and I hope that listening to this music will help get you “in the mood” for this holy and powerful season!
The hope is that you will listen to it in your home or in your car, or import the music onto your ipad or ipod or whatever listening device you prefer. And to facilitate the latter process (and/or to make it possible for you to play the music on your computer), even though we haven’t yet burned the cds, here’s an advance glimpse of the music we’ll be sharing with our community this year.
