Ki V'Simchah

This is the first dance that I ever choreographed. The singer/songwriter is Mark Skier, the lyricist is the prophet Isaiah/Yishaya (Isaiah, chapter 55, verse 12).

"For you will go out with joy, and be led forth with peace; the mountains and the hills will break forth before you in song, and all the trees of the field will clap hands."

This song is available for free public enjoyment in the radio blog on Mark Skier's website, http://www.mosheskier.com/index.htm.

A fun comment from the choreographer:
Can you spot the American Sign Language? Hint: One of the hand/arm gestures, repeated twice, means, "tree;" the other, which I describe as a "compound sign," shows soil sifted between the fingers followed by a sign depicting a large, flat surface, and means (I hope--I'm over a decade out of ASL class) "field."
