_ _ _ _ [E] name is Aziz Schwartz, I'm a cantor.
I've known Rias Kammerchor, which is, by the way, in my opinion, one of the best ensembles
in the world. _
For as long as I've known Park Avenue Synagogue, which, by the way, is the best synagogue in the world.
Aziz is something very special and we do have a long distance relationship, I like to call it.
For me, music making is always about collaboration.
The process for this particular album started over a year ago.
It's a very long process.
It begins with Aziz and me coming up with a general concept or theme.
This has been a multi _ -continent _ project.
It has multiple languages, it has multiple very talented people, starting with my partner,
Colin Fowler, the music director of Park Avenue Synagogue, and the music director of Rias,
Justin Doyle.
After we chose some of the rep, we saw that this was going to be a heavily choral album,
and at that point, deciding to do it here with the best choir in Berlin, with the Rias
Kammerchor, _ made it a very easy decision.
In this album, we've been trying to find the musical roots of our community.
So recording this music in a church in Berlin, it's very poignant.
It means a lot to a lot of people.
And I hope, in a sense, that makes it easier [A] to transmit this music and this [D] culture to
a different audience, a wider audience.
Generally, in religious music, you try to combine the feeling _ of the nostalgia and melancholy
also to a common ground.
You want to have common ground in God, somehow.
And surely the more we understand of each other through music, the better.
And this is like the heaven opens up a bit and the sun comes in. _ _ _ _ _
