Re: Thanks ()() and OT to you
Angel:I am posting a group of my new readings on Smoky Joe's tomorrow, including Memorial Day, which, I think you liked. About my father's death. Not sure -- but think I recall that -- no archive anymore to check. Just in case you'd like to hear the reading. And hoping you will read soon. Angel I've yet to hear any of the readings on your ...

(שלום) New videos now available
As always, accessible from here. This weekend's selection of sung poetry includes Psalms 137, 47 (part), Numbers 6:22-27 (the Priestly Blessing -- my best slideshow video yet) and Exodus 20:2 (set apart by mediocre shofar playing, poor singing and bad lighting). wr ()()

New videos are now available
I have several new videos up; they and all the others may be accessed here. My best videos to date are the slideshows of Psalms 24, Psalms 137 and (the crowning touch so far) Numbers 5:22-27 (the Priestly Blessing). wr ()()

Re: "Xairete," wabbit - beautiful sounds!
Dear Auntie Pasta, ;) I did catch your earlier e-mail. The notes accompanying the video and the animation at its beginning identify the singers as the vocal ensemble SHOFAR, of Cali, Colombia. The harpist you see in the other video listings on my channel is Yours Truly. The music is transcribed from the Hebrew Masoretic Text (Letteris Edition) by ...

Re: Psalm 24 slideshow (Hebrew-English) on YouTube
The vocalists are young Seventh-Day Adventists from Cali, Colombia -- the vocal ensemble SHOFAR. Granted that you were distracted by PB, you somehow missed the identity of the singing group and the director as given at the beginning of the slideshow (and also of the video where I play harp accompanying SHOFAR's demo recording). This music has ...

Re: Hear Psalms 24 as music, the way God intended!
Thanks, NoStar. First, for the record: White_Rabbit is my Fray name (normally, on Poems Fray). Johanan Rakkav (also a former Fray name) is my literary pen-name (at least on the Web), a King James Version-style reworking of Yohanan Rakkav (יוחנן רכב) in Hebrew. Having said that, I hope you can cross the barriers of time and of musical-verbal ...

Re: Psalm 24 slideshow (Hebrew-English) on YouTube
NoStar: Rabbit, I shared this link with my friends over in Blorple Falls. http://fray.slate.com/discuss/forums/145850/ShowThread.aspx#145850 Hope you don't mind. NS Not a bit of it. It will be interesting to see who has responded, and how. wr ()()

Re: Psalm 24 slideshow (Hebrew-English) on YouTube
I am thinking about exactly that. If I can set up the slides so that I can include the consonants, accents and vowels from the Letteris Edition, then that would in effect be an exact transcription of the source text. The cognoscenti could then get a clue as to how the music is derived from the accents. I would have to slice and dice the verses ...

Hear the 24th Palms as music, They way God intended!
Hi, NoStar here commandeering KBFR from his Royal Highness, ratSoN. A good friend called White Rabbit, aka Johanon Rakkov, has been involved with studies that decipher the music notation of the Hebrew Bible based on the ground breaking discoveries of the late Suzanne Haik-Vantoura. He has put together a slide show with Psalm 24 in English and ...
