Tehilim Chapter 1 - תהילים פרק א
Growing up, I would cherish the opportunity every Shabbat to recite this traditional, slow-paced melody to Tehilim. Originating in the Spanish cities of Morocco such as Tangiers and Tetouan, IMHO, I believe there is no sweeter version in the world. Think you've heard better? Feel free to send me an email with a recording. I'll be waiting.
Here is Chapter 1 for your listening pleasure. Our first installment of Tehilim Tuesday.
better? no! almost as good. "nicest in the world" agreed! a close second would be Damascus Syrian, (note the kids zeal :-) ) must have been some 30 or so, years ago. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yr-HBKmc7LQ מפי מפי עוללים ויונקים יסדת עוז
And that's the Iraqi way, not the Syrian way which I know he is well familiar with. I was fortunate enough to hear Habusha pray arbith in Brooklyn back in April.
Hi everyone, I recently recorded a new Az Yashir Moshe in maqam "mzmoum" - often sang on Shabbat Teruma but I like singing it throughout the year. Also, I recorded Birkat HaLevana sung in Moroccan Tehilim Melody. Lastly, given that it's Rosh Hodesh this week, I finally recorded the traditional "Barechi Nafshi" that is said prior to Arvit and at the end of Shaharit. See below.
