Play Audio | Stop Audio
The exciting, Chassidic-sounding melody that appears in Voices in Prayer and the Jewish Life Cycle songbooks is now available as an SAB arrangement that's as much fun to sing as it is to listen or dance to. If you've got a volunteer choir, they're going to love this arrangement for mixed choir (SAB) and keyboard (includes guitar chords). Audio is the finale from a 2007 performance in Buenos Aires by Cantor Annie Rose's Kol Halev choir of Temple Beth Emeth of Ann Arbor along with several Argentinian choirs. Please read the "user reviews" of Shehecheyanu on the Quotes page.

Sea Chanty - arranged by Adrian A. Durlester
Play Audio | Stop Audio
Inspired by the creative spirit of the scribes who shaped the appearance of the Shirat HaYam, this new setting is whimsically set in the style of a hornpipe of sailor's chanty and weaves in melodies for the special and regular tropes. The primary melody, Ashira L’Adonai which appears in the Voices in Prayer songbook, is written in a limited range specifically for performance by a youth choir while the other parts are to be sung by adults. Although children truly love to sing Ashira L’Adonai and their participation is likely to result in a spirited presentation of the music, Sea Chanty has also been successfully performed by only adult singers. This is a wonderful selection for Shabbat Shirah or at other times in place of oft-used settings for the "Mi Chamocha" text. Arranged for mixed choir (SAB), youth choir, soloist, child soloist, keyboard and optional piccolo.
