8: "Hakol BeSeder, B'eli HaSeder"

Hakol BeSeder, B'eli HaSeder by Jamie Klenetsky. Finalist, Karen Sokolof Javitch Composition Competition.

This is what I went to Omaha for the past week. This piece was performed live in front of a sizable crowd, by very fantastic musicians. I don't have the recording yet, but I'll post that as soon as I can get it. While I didn't win the competition, I learned a great deal, and hope to be putting those lessons into practice into the next song.

This piece is about 7 minutes long and is essentially about "Beshert" - what will be will be because it is meant to be. It's usually referred to about your soulmate, but my mom uses it for basically everything. I hope you enjoy!

Lyrics:

Sh'ma, yisrael
Hear me.

Hakol BeSeder, Hakol BeSeder.
Hakol BeSeder, B'eli Haseder.
B'eli HaSeder, B'eli HaSeder.

Amen.
