New Publications of Ami's Music

The Aminadav Aloni Music Foundation is working diligently toward the publication of Ami's entire body of work. The most recent achievements:

Shir Chadash (A New Song): Sabbath Evening Service
A complete Sabbath evening service. Ami conceived of the service as a means of utilizing all musical forces at hand: from children through adult. His music combines the influences of cantorial singing, Chasidic fervor, jazz, and secular songwriting within the framework of Sabbath liturgy.

Adon Olam (Chasidic) has been released as part of the Shabbat Anthology, Volume I. The book and CD combination offers Sabbath music that has been published in Piano/Vocal/Guitar format.

Both are available from Transcontinental Music.

Music For The Synagogue Choral Music of Aminadav Aloni CD

I remember very clearly a conversation I had with Ami in about April of 1990, when the VBS choir was recording the Hallel and the Torah Services. During a break, when I told Ami how much I was enjoying the recording experience, he said that people thought he was crazy for having the choir make the recording, instead of using professionals; but Ami said he knew that, even though it took a lot longer to do the physical recording, no one else could sing those pieces with the same feeling and love as the choir. I think he was pleased with the finished product, and I know that no one could have sung with as much love, for both the man and his music.
