Ki L'Olam Chasdo Robbi Sherwin with Steve Brodsky - music Finding the right balance of High Holy Day music is always a challenge. I wanted to write a folk version of Psalm 136 and did so two days before Yom Kippur 5759. A couple of months later, Steve Brodsky and I tweaked it in his living room in Denver. Steve's wife, Jill, was asleep on the couch and dog, Cody, was lying on my foot and guitar strap! A very homey scene. Lyrics: |
Modeh Ani Robbi Sherwin & Scott Leader - music Most of my favorite versions of Modeh Ani are very up and joyful: Those by Mah Tovu, Yom Hadash, Sam Glaser & Kol BSeder are great for waking up and getting moving. I am also very grateful that God has allowed me to wake up and returned my soul to me, but I am just not ready to tap dance, yet! Lyrics: |
Yihiyu L'Ratzon Ian Silver and Julie Schorsch - music Scott & Billy introduced me to this song the summer of '97. It was the first of about 100 songs they taught me, and it really defines who we are as a trio. Thanks, dudes, for your talent, energy and enthusiasm and for keeping me young. Lyrics: |
Elijahu Robbi Sherwin with Rich Glauber & Herb
Belofsky - music After a particularly amazing winter weekend at Greene Family Camp in Bruceville, Texas, I was happily heading down the freeway to lead my kids choir in a Purim concert, when my tire literally exploded. There was debris for a half a mile and black streaks of rubber across my white van. Dressed nicely for a concert another hour away, I got out and changed that tire myself. Completely ecstatic with my accomplishment and the world in general (I am woman, hear me roar!) I headed home as this melody refused to leave my head. Lyrics: |
Shema Robbi Sherwin - music While looking for the right Shema to go with Julie Silver's beautiful V'ahavta, I discovered one did not exist. I decided to write my own as a thank-you present to Julie. Lyrics: |
Hinini Robbi Sherwin, based on High Holy Day Liturgy
- music & lyrics Hinini is the Cantor's prayer asking G-d to please help the cantor do a good job in bringing the prayers of the people up to G-d. I've found the cleansing time between Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur to be a very creative time, as well. It's amazing what gets unclogged and cleaned out, leaving room for so much more in life Lyrics: |
Lecha Dodi Scott Leader & Billy Tiep - music Rock, on Sabbath Queen! Thank you Jon, Josh, Adam, Dave & Peri for making this song so incredible. Lyrics: |
The Chosen Robbi Sherwin & Scott Leader with Sam
Glaser - music & lyrics Composed in Austin, Scott and I knew that Sam Glaser would add just the right touch to the intensity of the lyrics. The Pico-Robertson neighborhood of LA welcomed us with open arms as we sat in awe watching Sam's amazing band bring this song to life. Lyrics: |
Todah L'Chem This is my anthem of thanks to the many musicians who brought me here. Lyrics:

Al Tistakel Robbi Sherwin - music Herb Belofsky, Sam Jordan, Stephen Belans - percussion,
drums Percussion perfection! 12 different instruments made up the heartbeat of this, as I watched my 11 year-old son, Sam, creating the amazing rhythm with his teacher, Stephen Belans and mentor, Herb Belofsky. Lyrics: |
