Welcoming Shabbat with Ein Keiloheinu to the Tune of "Autumn Leaves"

The songs we sing in the synagogue on Shabbat can be set to many different tunes and there have been many adaptations of Adon Olam, Lecha Dodi, and Ein Keiloheinu that reflect popular songs from Broadway, Hollywood, and the Great American Songbook.

Two weeks ago, after the passing of singer Tony Bennett, Cantor Marcus Feldman of Temple Sinai in Los Angeles performed Ein Keiloheinu, part of the Shabbat morning service, to the tune of Autumn Leaves, one of Bennett's signature songs.

Enjoy, and Shabbat shalom!
