SUMMARY:Yom Kippur Nigun Circle and Meditation
DESCRIPTION:In the stillness of the afternoon\, between the intensity of the prayers\, gather with Hazzan Asa Fradkin\, Rabbi Rami Schwartzer\, and shaliach Yoel Gleizer to enter the quiet power of melody. Through the ancient practice of nigun—wordless\, winding song—we open the heart\, settle the spirit\, and draw close to something deeper. No experience needed; off-key voices most welcome.
