Welcoming Shabbat with Adon Olam by Cantor Shira Ginsburg and Michael Hunter Ochs


This week we welcome Shabbat with a new version of Adon Olam by Cantor Shira Ginsburg and Composer-in-Residence Michael Hunter Ochs at the East End Temple, a Reform synagogue in New York City.

Cantor Ginsburg is celebrating her 15th year of service at the synagogue in New York City. As a Messinger Scholar, Shira earned her Masters, Cantorial degrees and ordination from Hebrew Union College – Jewish Institute of Religion.  

Shira is the recipient of the Women of Reform Judaism Award, Cantorial Alumni Association Prize, and Sylvia Davidson Memorial Award for extraordinary diligence in mastering Chazzanut. 

In addition to his success in contemporary popular music, Ochs is universally recognized as a leading composer of Jewish and Interfaith worship music. On any given Friday evening his music can be heard in synagogues around the world. 

Enjoy, and Shabbat shalom!

  1. Piano is too loud. Takes away from the singing. But still would play it again and again
