Meditative classical guitar arrangements of liturgical, traditional, folk and modern Jewish, Yiddish, and Israeli songs.

notes

From Yiddish folk tunes, to traditional and modern liturgical settings, to Broadway and the movies, these 18 songs represent Howard Lutwak's desire to bring to a broader audience these beautiful and moving works that span the generations of Jewish tradition. In Judaism, the number 18 is considered a lucky number because the Hebrew letters that represent the number 18 also spell the word “chai” which means “life.“

  • Very Refreshing CD
    author: William Hardy

    I really enjoyed the CD. I am a pop/blues guitarist so I wasn't sure if I could appreciate the skills . . but I did! It is a very refreshing, relaxing experience. I don't think I can name a favorite . . I enjoyed the title track and the songs from Fiddler. And, of course, the theme from Exodus which I hadn't heard for, perhaps, 25 years. This was very enjoyable!
