Why do we say “Tzeschem Lshalom” seconds after “Shalom aleichem”? We invite the Shabbos angels, we welcome them, and immediately we say goodbye. It’s a first for me as I never thought of this question. There were many firsts that night. I got to share the stage with Shlomo Simcha. I used to enjoy driving to the country in the early 90s listening to Shlomo Simcha sing “Im ein ani li ni li ni li”. Fast Forward some years and here we are in concert together. Overwhelming moment. We even opened the concert with that song. Another first: hearing Shlomo Simcha Farbreng. Today many of the singers talk too, some are better than others. My show “Bardichev to Broadway” I created, is based around speaking and singing. But this night was special. We decided to set a shabbos table on the stage to end the concert and create an authentic shabbos setting at the concert. It was so awesome, even I didn’t realize how grand it would be. I didn’t realize Shlomo Simcha would turn this into an evening of inspiration for the ages from our little shabbos table on the 8×8 stage extension. So why do we say goodbye to the angels just as we welcome them? Well, you must watch to find out the answer. When you watch you may also find a chazonushe twist in Shmuel Brazil’s composition of Shalom Aleichem. Just a subtle one. But it was too tempting to pass up. This is just a small clip of the magnificent concert. More to come. Stay tuned. Enjoy, like, subscribe, share!
