It brings out the humanity of people…. their words (the poets) will echo one theme: the writings of Jewish liturgy.” —Christopher Stollar “Music can bring Jews closer to their religion and a new nonprofit is dedicated to making that happen….” — Aaron Leibel “Our community contains a wealth of creativity that deserves to be widely known. All praise to Shalshelet: The Foundation for New Jewish Liturgical Music for its efforts in uncovering and encouraging these efforts and presenting them in these festivals.” –Leon Cohen |
