Hashkiveinu (Louis Lewandowski)

A simple prayer at bedtime. Such a familiar experience in many homes; a mother tucking in the children, father before the evening meal as the family sits round the table, little ones in the pajamas freshly bathed and brushed. “Good Night, Sleep Tight, Don’t let the bedbugs bite!” Lullabies and bedtime prayers are often indistinguishable  as musical genres, so ingrained is this need to wrap up the day and reach out to the Protectors-in-charge who must keep the Earth turning while we float into unconsciousness.

Jewish Cemetary in Krakow Jewish Cemetary in Krakow

The first time I heard the Kaddish, it struck me very deeply. I did not understand the language; I did not know what it was about. All I know is that it was the most beautiful melody I had ever heard. That opening phrase with its flattened second note of the scale was absolutely hypnotic. The language I did not know: strange and earthy. When it built to its climax, I was swept with it.
