Three months ago, Heichal Hatarbut in Tel aviv, experienced something different than its usual musical event. The “Chassidic Treasures'' Concert. An evening featuring nigunim of various Chasidic Dynasties, Chabad, Bobov, Breslev and Mozitz. The first half of the concert concluded with a medley of Chabad greatest nigunim.
The concert featured some of the world’s top tier cantors: Aryeh Leib Hurwitz, Yaakov Motzen, Avremi Roth, and Yisrael Nachman Turgeman, performed with the Raanana Symphony Orchestra and the joint choirs "Yoval" and "Zimratyah".
Arranged and conducted by the Maestro Ofir Sobol, the tunes of the Chabad Medley were compiled from various beloved and treasured Chabad tunes, which Chabad Rabbeim and Menagnim have brought to us over the years:
1. Avinu Malkeinu - Melody 6 in Sefer HaNigunim, one of the ten tunes attributed to the Alter Rebbe. Chasidim sing this tune during the Yomim Noroim in the Rebbe’s shul at the start of every prayer. It's also sung worldwide in Chabad during the High Holidays and Fast days.
2. Ka'eil Ta'arog - Nigun #14 of Sefer HaNigunim, a song of devotion associated with the Rebbe the Tzemach Tzedek.
3. Tzama Lecha Nafshi - Nigun #21 of the songbook attributed to the Alter Rebbe, though not among the ten tunes. The Rebbe taught this beloved melody during the gathering of Shabbos Parshas Kedoshim in the year 1954.
4. Eli Atah - Nigun #3 of Sefer HaNigunim, one of the ten tunes of the Alter Rebbe. In Chabad, it's sung at the end of the Pesach Seder, In Hallel, and at many Chasidish Farbrengens
5. Baruch Hu Elokeinu - The opening song of the album by the singer *Avraham Fried* "Yankel Yankel", released in *2009*. Chasidim in Nevel sang a similar tune with these same words.
6. Nigun Rikud - Nigun #27 of Sefer HaNigunim. Also known as the "Nigun Simchas Torah" from Nikolayev, and also as "The Rebbe's Nigun". The song opens the first record in the series "Nichocach".
