FolkPodDavid Amram: Student at the School of Hang-Out-OlogyWhen we say David Amram has worked with everyone, we mean EVERYONE, including Aaron Copeland, Dizzy Gillespie, Theolonious Monk, Pete Seger, Jack Kerouac, and more! An American composer, arranger, & conductor, David composed the music for The Manchurian Candidate, and in 1966, David was chosen by Leonard Bernstein as the first composer in residence for the New York Philharmonic. Now you might wonder what all of this has to do with folk! David has been attending folk music conferences and festivals forever. Jamming with other musicians until the wee hours of the night, David's always the one closing down the house! H...

Reb L's G-dcastGC#60 - Kiss of Life/Kiss of Death - Omer Day 46Today, we find a connection between one action with two very different implications. When you throw a goodbye kiss to a parent or beloved relative, you are expressing that you will miss them and still connect to them, even though you may not see them for a while. Even the root of the hebrew word is נשק - which means variously to be attached (תשוקה), sustained (with Yosef - ועל פיך ישק כל עמי) or kiss. All imply a longing, a connection, a caring.
Dveikus.
So when we are told that Orpah kissed Naomi and left, whilst Rus clung to her, it just seems like two di...

2020-05-1200 minReb L's G-dcastGC#35 - Snakes and Ladders - Omer Day 21The culmination of 3 weeks of counting. Hopefully, we are on an upwards journey, ascending Yaakov's ladder, and not slipping into Eisav mode. Eisav - the twin who should have been the perfect counterpart to Yaakov. There should be no Yissachar-Zevulun partnership. It should have been a Yaakov-Eisav coalition. But the latter took a wrong turning, only rearing his head positively once in history subsequently - as evidenced by Rebbi and Antoninus - the former a scion of King David; the latter a powerful Roman ruler.
