[HANASHIR:3686] RE: Sukkot

[Adrian Durlester <durleste...>]

I would happily nominate Karen Daniel's "Sitting In A Sukkah" (Shameless
Plug: which just happens to appear on her new album, "Teachable, Singable
and Jewish: Songs for Shabbat and Holidays".)

Sheet music for this song can be made available by contacting the artist at
durlkare (at) aol(dot)com (or me).

A sample from the lyrics:

Tonight, tonight, I'm sitting in s Sukkah tonight
And up above I can see the stars shining bright
For forty years we wandered in the desert
We lived in little booths like this back then
So for eight days we sit inside a Sukkah once again.

It has 3 walls and lots of pretty branches for a ceiling
We decorate with pictures of the harvest and popcorn on a string
the myrtle and the palm and willow strand
And a fragrant yellow etrog from the Holy Land
We raise them high and celebrate Sukkot with our blessing.


If it fits your celebration better, you could sing the song as "Singing in
the Sukkah."

Karen also has a new Simchat Torah song (as well as one for Rosh Hashanah.)
Inquiries welcome.

Glad to be back from CAJE, but really exhausted. Expect list membership to
grow exponentially and include more and more of your favorite Jewish
performers, songwriters, educators, etc.

Adrian
