Synopsis

This is an extraordinary collection of selections covering a wealth of material for Shabbat, Holydays, Life Cycle events plus solo arrangements of Educational and Wisdom Songs. The music in this songbook is relatively easy to perform, the vocal parts are eminently singable, and the accompaniments for keyboard with guitar chords enrich the music with vibrant harmony. These compositions beautifully convey the inner meanings and the spirit of each text and give new insight into the depth of our prayers and songs. This is a collection which should certainly be found in every synagogue and in every Jewish home, for it adds great luster to the celebration of our rich heritage made so vivid by Isaacson's fine music.
