The Voice of My Beloved – Kol Dodi from Odessa, Ukraine
4m 12s
This setting for springtime by David Nowakowsky (1848–1921), part of the Song of Songs, is all about arrivals, expectation, and allegories of love. This passage is read during Passover, which we will celebrate during the upcoming month of Nisan. Nowakowsky flourished with other Jewish musical greats in Odessa, Ukraine, a city that was home to a vibrant Jewish community.
We hope for new beginnings throughout the world, and for the message of love and faith to be stronger than any other.
Featuring Cantor Shiree Kidron and Cantor Azi Schwartz
Orchestrated by Cantor Joseph Ness
