Many years ago, a few friends got together, Tzvika Wolfson, Dovid Kotkes and a few others, to review niggunim and nussach for Yomim Noraim. What came out was the beginning of this nussach. Over the years many other friends joined and it has evolved into “Nussach Pnei Shmuel”. I am blessed to be part of a wonderful, loving and supportive kehila (also very musical). We’ve grown together and this nussach is just one of the steps in our aliyah together. It is my humble hope that it will inspire your tefilos as well. It is my humble hope and prayer that it will inspire your tefilos as well.
It is impossible to capture the awe and feeling of being visited by the Heavenly Court that is felt during the actual kedusha of Yomim Noraim. However, this is my attempt to capture a bit of the spirituality.
I am deeply grateful to my friend and producer Zev Becker, of OnChord Studios, who made efforts above and beyond to pull this together with talented musicians around the globe. I wish everyone a Kesiva V’chasima Tova!
