Rav Meir Shapiro's Magnificent Niggun!
Today, the 7th of Cheshvan, was the 76th yahrzeit of Rav Meir Shapiro, who was the initiator of the Daf HaYomi program, the daily folio [page] of Talmud learning, as well as the Founder and Rosh Yeshiva of Yeshivas Chachmei Lublin in Poland. We previously posted about him here.
In addition, in this post, we discussed the tribute to the great Jewish klezmer [clarinetist], Moshe [Musa] Berlin. In the video below, we have Musa, together with his disciple, Chilik Frank, and some other great musicians, playing Rav Meir Shapiro’s beautiful Lecha Dodi niggun. I’ve heard this sung on Leil Shabbos [Friday night] by R. Moshe Bienenstock of Breslov, and it’s magnificent!
