I just thought it would be nice to post some music reflecting what's been in rotation on my iPod lately...
More than a year later, and Moshe Hecht's debut album continues to be a fresh listen. There are some free tracks available on his website.
I'm not very familiar with Chazzan Helfgott but I absolutely love Eternal Echoes, the collaboration between him and virtuoso Itzhak Perlman. A dudele is a favorite song...
Oren Tsur (mandolin) is part of the HaLev v'HaMaayan ensemble (where he mainly plays violin) along with Chilik Frank and others. He shows his versatility in this clip with Nadav Bachar, a talented young artist.
Moshiach Oi! gets a listen only when I'm in an ironic mood, but it's good for injecting humor into an overcast day.

Therefore, the pure righteous do not complain of the dark, but increase the light; they do not complain of evil, but increase justice; they do not complain of heresy, but increase faith; they do not complain of ignorance, but increase wisdom. - Rav Kook
Love Is The Motive...
It is a singular force that drives us like no other. The sages teach that the highest level of serving God is serving Him with Love. It is the motivation throughout our waking moments, what keeps us going, what takes us on to the next day, and is one of the most powerful tools known to Man. It has the power to heal like a soothing balm, and the ability to crush and destroy if misused. We must learn how to utilize this tool, and unite all of world Jewry, and ultimately, the world. Then we will experience Tikkun Olam, and our exiles will be gathered in Peace. So go ahead, make your own credo; finish off that line of thought. Love Is The Motive...
