Description:
Hear The Feminine Voice of Mystical Judaism. For generations, the female voice has been forbidden in Jewish sacred music even as these same women have served as the silent witnesses to a history of overwhelming joy and sorrow. Ruth Wieder Magan's Songs to the Invisible God breaks that silence in a stunning excursion into the feminine spirit hiding within Judaism's mystical roots. Magan's work has already been hailed as a revelation of the female voice and its potential in prayer throughout the Holy Land and Europe, moving her audiences to tears, kneeling and awe-inspired silence. On this, her debut release, she offers listeners a journey into the deepest yearnings, lamentations and reveries of Jewish prayer and song from authentic nigunim and piyut to the magical words of the Zohar, from the mystical incantations of the kabbalah to the passionate Ladino folk songs of medieval Spain. Listen, as one woman's luminous voice stretches into the void - blind, emphatic, singing - in search of the Ein Sof, silent heart of all creation.
