Learn the Service
Would you like to learn to lead services? Would you like to be able to sing along with more confidence?
We have made many recordings available online to help you learn prayers and tunes of the Shabbat and weekday service, and other rituals. This page contains a list of all the music we've recorded. If you are looking for something that you don't find here, please send an email to Rabbi Graff with your request and we'll add it. Some of the prayers are available in more than one voice, which can be helpful if you're looking for a different tune or a different key.
Page numbers are for Siddur Sim Shalom unless stated otherwise. To play, click on the play button arrow if there is one, or click on the name if there is no arrow. To download, right click (or ctrl/click) on the name and then select "save link as".
