In the 16th century, this Jewish Italian composer and violinist, fellow-student and collaborator of Claudio Monteverdi, wrote some thirty liturgical pieces for three to eight mixed voices. They fell into oblivion. In 1870, in Paris, Samuel Naumbourg, helped by the young Vincent d'Indy, brought them together in a volume and made them partially adopted by some synagogues. "Shir Lama'alot" for five voices is a composition taken from Rossi's book "Hashirim Asher Lishlomo", printed in Venice in 1623. read more - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salamone_Rossi The Jerusalem Oratorio Chamber Choir conducted by Ronen Borshevsky.

Er weidet mich auf grüner Aue und führet mich zum frischen Wasser. (He maketh me to lie down in green pastures; he leadeth me the quiet waters by.) Er erquicket meine Seele; (My soul he doth restore again) er führet mich auf rechter Straße um seines Namens willen. (and me to walk doth make in the paths of righteousness, even for his own Name's sake.) Und ob ich schon wanderte im finstern Tal, fürchte ich kein Unglück; (Yea, though I walk in death's dark vale, yet will I fear no ill) denn du bist bei mir, dein Stecken und dein Stab trösten mich. (For Thou art with me; and thy rod and staff my comfort still.) Du bereitest vor mir einen Tisch im Angesicht meiner Feinde....  less

Recorded live on December 8, 2013, at All Saints Episcopal Church in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Performed by the Lyric Choir ensemble of the Girl Choir of South Florida. Artistic Director: Wallis Peterson, Harpist: Charlene Conner. When night's shadows fly New Year's dawn floods all the sky; And joyful voices sound, joyful voices sound. Branches of the fragrant pine Hang ev'rywhere around, ev'rywhere around Leaves so dainty fine Freshly gathered, dewy shine, And glitter in the light, glitter in the light. From Kadusa's lofty pinetree Waving, on the height, on the height.  less
