Prayers and Songs (audio)
Want to experience the High Holidays by taking a walk in the woods? Have to drive somewhere over the holidays? We've created playlists of audio recordings of some of our High Holiday prayers and songs. These are not meant to replicate our full services, and not all of the prayers are included, but we have created a fairly full repertoire. These pieces are sung by Shaarei Shamayim members Enid Williams, Michael Kantor, Ariel Kaufman, Zaccai Lewis, Julia Banchik, Shahanna McKinney Baldon, and Harry Webne-Behrman, as well as our former High Holiday cantorial soloist, Mikko Utevsky. Our recording of Kol Nidrei also includes a previously recorded piece sung by Jerry Kaufman z"l, father of Ariel Kaufman.
