This chant (to Isaiah 12,3) was written at Mayim Hayyim, Boston's amazing Mikvah, for a rite of passage ceremony we held there on January 2010 while on Tour with the Nava Tehia Ensemble. We recorded it at the roadside to NY when our van broke down. Opening shot shows the van and Yoel Sykes is inside the van calling AAA. We decided to be much more practical and started praying Camera man Aaron Shneur. Daphna Rosenberg wrote the music and is singing with Ruth Gan Kagan. Yes, our hands were freezing. Yes, AAA did send the tow truck and with the help of a rental car we made it on time to our gig that evening in NY. Prayer works!
