Chazzanut Online- For your Cantorial needs

Last year I showcased a site called Virtual Cantor, a rich database of free traditional Nussach for many Shabbat/Holiday services. Today I would like to give a shout out to Chazzanut. This site contains a plethora of Cantorial sheet music as well as MIDI files, so you can pickup Abraham Katz's V'Shamru or Birkat Kohanim. Take a look and let me know which piece is your favorite? Better yet, why not make a youtube video of yourself singing the piece and share it? I am thinking of starting to upload some cantorial pieces to CantorsClub.

Happy Singing!

Magical Shabbat Dinner Song

In February, I was eating Shabbat dinner with a really beautiful family in MD. The Father, who is a Chazzan, started singing "Dodi Li" at the Shabbos Table by himself. He repeated the melody and then his wife joined in with a harmony as well as his three children. I had never heard that version of Dodi Li before.

My Girlfriend and I were literally blown away so I found the song online (From the "Rock n'Roll Matzah Ball" Album by Judy & David) and started putting together the following arrangement of it using NoteFlight. Coincidently, my girlfriend's name is Dodie, which made the whole thing even cooler.
