 | Seeds of Wonder 15 new song-prayers nourish the heart and soul on Hanna Tiferet's seventh CD. Seven is Malkhut
in the Tree of Life, bearing the fruit of wisdom and wonder. As
children, our senses awaken with wonder to the beauty of the
natural world. Yet, wonder can also mean uncertainty, as we
probe life's meaning and purpose. This album takes us on the
journey of birth through death, touching the miracles, as well as the
losses, that we experience along the way. The melodies were sung
in Boston's B'nai Or community, which Hanna served as co-rabbi for
seven years. They include Ashrey, Hashkiveynu, Ruth's Song, Kaveh el YaH, Hashkiveynu, and Carry Me. Featured musicians are Shulamit Wise Fairman, Jeff Klepper, Daniel Siegel, Eric Kilburn, Janet Hood, and Beth Cohen.
