Dudi Knopfler ft. Shira Choir - Birchas Kohanim

A traditional Chuppah song from Sephardic origin makes the fitting journey to the weddings and chuppah canopies of New York’s Jewish demographics.

This soaring, heartwarming song adopts the words of Birchat Kohanim (the priestly benediction), exhibiting a generational blessing bestowed by parents unto their children at the pivotal point in life: their wedding night.

Sung in most communities in Israel, we found the song deeply moving and worth of a larger audience. Dudi and Shira collaborated for a unique, hauntingly beautiful visual delivery to do it justice.
