So does LW also use the Chabad Yaaleh?

I know the tune is used plenty, I'm wondering if it is used universally for yaaleh

;D
(I was wondering how you wouldn't know that tune)

I've never heard it put to those words

In general I find the Yom Kippur night piyutim to be beautiful and meaningful.
Indeed. As are הושענות for הושענא רבה.

However, as a side note, Ashkenazic liturgy is a lot more cryptic and inconsistent with דקדוק than is Sephardic. Part of the תענוג of the liturgy is decrypting it.

as stated there (kinda,) the mesorah by chabad is that it was composed by R' Aharon* Charitonov. If you have alternative facts we can look a little deeper. I'm not gonna doubt it simply based on the fact that it's sung in Lakewood etc.

*apparently some people say it was actually his brother R' Shalom who composed it, but that's besides the point.

1st day Rosh Hashono Rabbi Mendy Blau used this niggun in 770 for יי מלך, יי מלך, יי ימלוך לעולם ועד, fit beautifully.

I have mixed feelings about this one. On one hand I really like it but on the other hand the tune doesn't quite fit the words as perfectly as the others.

You really need Mottel Berkowitz in order to make the words fit.  ;)

No, we sing that for Pischu Li by Hallel.


The mesorah is that Rav Yankel Shtinkavitch made it up in Kletzk in 1874, (some say his brother Getzel made it up)  :P

I know you're joking, but the "mesorah" you're teasing about doesn't go that far back, and the Charitonows are renowned within what was a relatively small community. It's like you telling me, "my cousin's grandfather made up that song."

Nope, I think the middle link is pischu. Top and bottom are the universal yaaleh.

All these niggunim are not chabbad, they are the standard ashkenaz nusach..

Chabbad niggunim are tzoma, 4 bbovas etc. These are totally different styles.

All 3 links are the same tune.

It's a very very similar tune to the tune LW uses for Pischu Li

I always thought like you, that the Yaaleh/Pischu Li and Ki hinei were Universal Ashkenazi songs.

But maybe their Chabad, and were adopted by Litvaks.

I didn't hear good enough proof either way.

I'm undecided.

I hear you, it may be true.

Those 2 songs are literally classics in the Litveshe world.

Keili Atah is also a classic, but we know it's Chabad.

That's the difference between songs composed by a Chabad Rebbe vs a Chosid.
There's a rich catalog of each.

We don't use that tune.

And indeed it is much more Chabad sounding than the other 2, as CBC pointed out.

But not all Chabad songs have the distinctive Chabad sound, so it doesn't prove anything.
