Two suggestions for ḥazanim (cantors) and shliḥei tsibur on the High Holidays:

1) In the piyyut, “Hayom,” add “hayom tishm’tenu ligulah” — “the day of our release” (note — the phrases come in alphabetical order) הַיוֹם תִּשְׁמְטֵנוּ לִגְאוּלָה.

2) In the piyyut that comes at the end of some amidot on YK and RH (e.g. Sepharadi minḥa Kaddish Shalem, beginning “sha`arei orah” etc.) add “sha`arei sh’mitah” שַׁעֲרֵי שְׁמִיטָה.

David Seidenberg

Rabbi David Seidenberg, founder of NeoHasid.org, teaches text and music, Jewish thought and spirituality, in their own right and in relation to ecology and the environment. With smikhah (ordination) from the Jewish Theological Seminary and from Rabbi Zalman Schachter-Shalomi, he has taught at over 100 synagogues, communities, retreats and conferences across North America (and a few in Europe and Israel). Rabbi Seidenberg's teaching empowers learners to become creators of Judaism through deep study and communion with texts and tradition. Areas of specialty include Kabbalah and Ḥasidut, Talmud, davenning, evolution and cosmology, sustainability, Maimonides, Buber, and more. Rabbi Seidenberg has published widely on ecology and Judaism. He is the author of the acclaimed book Kabbalah and Ecology: God's Image in the More-Than-Human World (Cambridge U. Press, 2015).

neohasid.org

NeoHasid.org was created by Rabbi David Seidenberg to help folks integrate Chasidic song, learning, and nusach into their davenning and communities and to explore embodied Torah. It evolved to focus on eco-Torah and to share liturgy that honors our relationship with the Earth and/or expresses gender parity.
