This year, the cantors and music department have had a special focus on Israel, trying to instill hope in the wider Jewish community. As the conflict continues and we still await the release of all hostages, our annual album this year will be Am Yisrael Chai: An October 7th Commemorative Album, featuring both beloved favorites and new songs.
The album will be released on the one-year anniversary of the October 7 attacks, between Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur, and will be available on the PAS website and wherever you listen to music. Meanwhile, we invite you to sing along with Am Yisrael Chai, featured on our upcoming album.
Lyrics and music by Avi Ohayon and Ofir Cohen
Arrangement by Oran Eldor, commissioned by PAS Music Center
Music Director: David Enlow
Video: Einav Drummer
Audio: Oli Jung, Oscar Acevedo
