There's a simplified version of one of the traditional ways of singing Kol
Nidre in the book called "a heritage of jewish music" which should be
available in your community library. Otherwise you'd be able to get a
version from Transcontinental.
Best of luck, you'll do fine.

  Dear Listers,
  I have been invited to sing Kol Nidre at the Learning Service of our small
congregation (members desribe ourselves as traditional egalitarian and i'm
not sure how it differs from Reform of which we are using prayer books).
where do i begin? i took it on  (probably being overly ambitious) as an
inspirational challenge, hopefully not way over my greenhorn head. i can't
read Hebrew that well though help is on hand if text is available; i'm
hoping to learn it more or less by listening (all summer, 100 times a day)
to the recorded singing of...?  Please help...
          thanks,           lenka
