Oseh Shalom HD

The idea behind the new music for Oseh Shalom was, in the words of its composer Stephen Levey, to write a piece which would appeal to all, with words that are well known and with a tune that could be sung easily. The song was written as a prayer for peace for Israels 60th anniversary and was featured as a new composition on the Chief Rabbis Home of Hope CD.
The Chief Rabbi wanted images to accompany some of the songs on the CD. Whilst on the recent Solidarity through Song mission to Israel (where The Shabbaton Choir sang to people in the cities of Sderot and Ashkelon) the Chief Rabbi asked Stephen to consider how he would visualise Oseh Shalom as a film.
On seeing & hearing the positive response to the song both in Israel and in the UK, Stephen felt it could be filmed as an anthem in the style of the Band Aid video.
This was fortuitous, as the musical director for Band Aid, Trevor Horn, had been instrumental (literally) in arranging some of the music on the CD. Once again he offered, very generously, to produce the track at his studio the same studio in which Band Aid was recorded twenty four years earlier. The recording took place on 30th April 2008 with soloists Jonny Turgel, Shimon Craimer and Rabbi Lionel Rosenfeld, The Shabbaton Choir, children from Londons Moriah Jewish Day School and The Chief Rabbi himself. The film was produced and directed by Adam Cohen.
