I LOVE this, Rowna, and I love singing it too.  Reminds me, though, of "Le Miz"!

[asterissima]

Soo beautiful! Soo musical!

Thank you soooooooooo much! Rowna

[Shabannie]

This is just beautiful. I am sure that I will enjoy listening to more of your music later.

You tipped me off about this work this fine Sabbath morning, and in fact I found it earlier. You seem to have a preference for Mr. Pourtnoy's work, and I can see why. It is both accessible and profound, and your performance of it is both likewise.

(As you may have inferred, I'm behind both the "rakkav" and the "teamim" channel. "We" both agree this is splendid. :) )

Your amazing channel is a beautiful gift to the youtube community and I'm always happy to discover new videos from you. Thank you for everything!

All the best to you.

[cantorandopera]

Your friendship and support are a great joy to me, as well, and I am always discovering new postings on your channel that I somehow miss when they are new. Thank you so much for your very kind and thoughtful words :)))))

Fourth try to post a comment (obviously something is rotten in the state of youtube):

Part 1:

Rowna, I feel so honoured that you dedicate this beautiful to me :)))

Actually I'm speechless about your kindness.

Your singing is as always a pleasure and the images go so extremely well with the music.

I'm so lucky to have you as youtube-friend, and thankful that you introduced me to this amazing kind of repertoire.

[sospello]

Finally catching up after the break, Rowna; thank you so much for this inspiring setting for "Meditiation" and of course your beautiful voice.

[cantorandopera]

Mille grazie :))

[Glenmed]

You have excelled yourself, Rowna. It's a beautiful piece, you were never in better voice and what lovely artwork these days!!

[teamim]

It's not every day that I hear a classical piece with Hebrew lyrics, let alone one in which melody and words blend so effortlessly. The text just seems to float heavenward. I love this style, and I love the way you bring it out. Keep up your marvelous work.

[cantorandopera]

Thank you - encouragment and kind words go a long way :))  Rowna
