A reader asked, in response to our last Sunday “celebration” piece, “What about church music?” Our readership is highly diverse; so this week we offer a playlist featuring spiritual music from faith traditions and beyond:
“I Will Meet You in the Morning,” an old gospel tune performed here by the Advent Harmony Choir,

“Kol Nidre” performed for Yom Kippur by Yo-Yo Ma,
https://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=4955739
“Hallelujah Chorus” from Messiah, performed by the Mormon Tabernacle Choir,
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BBZ7AfZR9xs
A very different but also deeply spiritual “Hallelujah,” sung by Leonard Cohen,
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YrLk4vdY28Q or, alternatively, by K.D. Lang, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P_NpxTWbovE)
The oldest Islamic nasheed (1500 years old), sung here by Sacred Sounds, a choir of 75 women of six faith backgrounds, including Hindu, Buddhist, Jewish, Christian, Muslim and Sikh,

“How Great Thou Art,” brought to us by Hillsong Church Online,

“Go Rest High on That Mountain,” performed by Vince Gill,

Let’s wrap this Sunday playlist up with my favorite, which I personally dedicate to Jill, to the Randy Spencer Trio, and to all who have sung it with me in Maine over the past 30 years. This performance of “The Weight” features Ringo Starr and Robbie Robertson in a rendition by Playing for Change. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ph1GU1qQ1zQ
Happy Sabbath, on Sunday or any other day. Please be safe. Peace. Salaam. Shalom.
