Kochav Tzedek (Sahli) w/Kadish - כוכב צדק


In honour of Avraham Avinu and Parashat Lech Lecha, here I present to you the song "Kochav Tzedek" (A Righteous Star) written by the famous Moroccan Poet, Rabbi David Bouzaglo.
The song describes the life and accomplishments of our forefather, Avraham.
I love to sing this song during the Parashiyot which speak about Avraham in great detail i.e. Lech Lecha and Vayera.
At the end of the recording, I use the tune to the words of Kadish. A good choice of melody for this coming week and beyond.
This quatrain can be applied to many Tefilot and goes specifically well with:

  • Lecha Dodi
  • Yigdal
Maqam is SAHLI.

Az Yashir Moshe, Birkat HaLevana and more...

 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.
