Hi everybody! The first of five special holiday programs is up on the net for your enjoyment. This program features music from and about the Selichos service. The special penitential prayers recited in the days leading up to Rosh Hashanah. The first one, on Saturday night, has always been a big service with great Cantorial music. On this program we feature several rare live recordings of actual Selichos services, some of which I was in!!  Hope you all enjoy and it gets you ready for the holidays!!
