We are pleased to welcome you to the second season of Drisha's music and liturgy project, recently given the name Gilu Bir'ada. The new season, Reverence & Reverie, takes us into the sounds and sentiments of the High Holidays.
We are proud to reintroduce Mr. Andy Statman on clarinet, and Mr. Abaye Steinmetz-Silber on piano. It is also our honor to welcome Ms. Laura Melnicoff on cello, and Mr. Jordan Hirsch on trumpet.
Rabbi David Silber provides framing by discussing the purpose of the prayers and emotions of the Rosh Hashanah services, but our focus is on the niggunim (of primarily chasidic origins) performed by our musicians. It is our hope that you enjoy the series, but also that it helps to imbue your holiday experience with a richer, more nuanced, perhaps even more melodious sense of meaning.
The three Rosh Hashanah episodes will debut on Facebook and YouTube at 4PM Eastern the week of September 18th, on Sunday, Tuesday, and Thursday. All three Yom Kippur episodes will debut on Thursday, the 29th of September. The audio will also be available on Google Podcasts, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and SoundCloud as the uploads are processed and approved.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
