Anim Zemirot
Anim Zemirot is a hymn sung in the main Sanctuary at the
end of the Shabbat Musaf service. It is led by a child and chanted responsively with the congregation.
Children who are between fourth grade and age 13 (until the day of their b'nai
mitzvah) may lead Anim Zemirot. Our Ritual Committee maintains a list of capable children who can step up to the bimah
each week to lead this hymn. When it is sung, the leader chants the
first line of each pair of verses and the congregation responds with the
second. Students who want to learn the tune can download the MP3 files
below. Please contact one of the rabbis or a
religious committee co-chair with any questions.
Children who want to practice Anim Zemirot can find the text on pages 185
and 186 of Siddur Sim Shalom.
Torah Trop
Many students (and some adults) are starting to learn trop.
You can see the names of the trop notes together with their symbols on
this handout (PDF).
Megillah Trop
Read the
trop notes (PDF)
while you hear them chanted (below).
Advanced Trop
From Rabbi Paskind's Nuances of Trope class, taught January
- February 2012.
Special Verses in Megillat Esther
The special melodies ("musical detours") correspond to special
events that happen in the Megillah.
References are to chapter/verse in Megillat Esther.
