Almost Done! A complete Saturday Morning Prayer Service audio and slideshow recording
At our shul, shabbat prayers start at 9:15 or 9:30am and run until about 12 or 12:30pm, depending upon what's happening in the Wheel of the Jewish Year. This is a slightly more streamlined version that omits repetitions and certain passages related to holidays or the Hallel. It's for an ordinary shabbat, for individuals or groups at home to enjoy shabbat wherever you are and to learn the main prayers of a traditional Jewish shabbat service, as well as some new Kohenet material composed by me or used with permission.
BandCamp Recordings
As I found when I was working on formatting the old radio show podcasts to run on Bandcamp, the longest a recording can be is about 28 minutes. That actually works out fairly nicely for sections of the Saturday morning prayers. In addition to the audio-only Bandcamp editions, a complete slideshow of lyrics and the audio combined will be created to be presented either on Bandcamp, if possible, or on PeerTube, the Fediverse YouTube alternative.
Zimrot
The format of all the sections of prayer will combine traditional Conservative tunes interspersed with Kohenet-style materials featuring mystical themed background music by David Heumann to make a halachically acceptable yet upbeat and spiritually moving experience.
Shacharit
Materials for the prayers services were taken primarily from the Siddur Hadash by R' Sidney Greenberg & R' Jonathan D Levine (the "old" Conservative siddur) and a couple of excerpts of feminized prayers from the Siddur HaKohanot by R' Dr Jill Hammer and Rav Taya Ma Shere. You can order the Kohenet Siddur online. I believe the Greenberg/Levine siddur is no longer in print. But don't worry, I made plenty of slides.
Torah Service
The vocals for the entire service were arranged, sung or read by yours truly, Leah Kiser, with experience over the past 15 years as one of several lay cantors at our shul. I also wrote a few of the songs myself, with thanks to Starhawk and her online courses for helping me develop them.
MUSAF
The slides for the prayers services are now completely finished for all four sections, and it only remains now for me to record the audio, which I hope to have completed before long, so we can all sing, play our instruments, or dance each shabbat in the Wheel of the Jewish year.
Kosher Cooking Podcasts - Food, Music, and more!
Listen to my original radio show Podcasts!
Once upon a time I was the treasurer at a fledgling nonprofit that won two low power radio licenses from the FCC. We had to be on the air by a certain date - but we didn't have enough local programs lined up yet to fulfill our local programming mandate. So...several of us board members made some radio shows! My contribution was called "Kosher Cuisine" and there were 20 episodes in all. Two were interviews with local nonprofits featuring their great work in the community. A couple were just prerecorded music programs for secular holidays when nobody would be at the station. And the rest were shows about Kosher cooking, holidays, music and history in several countries. So this is volume one of Kosher Cuisine - click the button below or on the image above to go directly to the Bandcamp album page.
