I heard a rumor that the classic Etz Chaim hi... tune has a conservative origin. Can anyone enlighten me if that's true?

Much of the modern orthodox davening is based on Louis Lewandowski

Lev Tahor 5 - Hallelu
Enjoy!



there are many tracks on that album that sounds like came from non-Jewish origin...

Simchas beis hashovah reminds me of some disney wizard theme song - cant find it though...

Did you know that the famous "Shalom Aleichem" song from Friday night that the whole world sings was composed by a reform rabbi?

1963? I thought that tune was ancient!

What tune did they use in Europe? What tune do chassidim use?


ETA: a very reliable source says the tune is much older.

I can tell you that my family does not use that tune but we use one which my grandfather sang, presumably from Europe. Neither I nor any anyone in my family including those who were guests at numerous people hwile learning in EY have not heard anyone else singing it until my father recently got re-married and we found that hiws new wife's family also sings that tune.

Oh wow I will need to go through these. We also sing a Ma Yedidus I never heard elsewhere that I may find there. Someone had actually told me that it came from Joe Amar but I was never able to find one of his.

I have some of those from Poland. One for Menucha Vsimcha, one for Boruch Hashem Yom Yom (yes there's actually a tune for that!) Still looking for others who know them.

What tune? I do that, too. I know the source (up to a point) of the one we sing.
