No thread about Jewish Music would be complete without this:

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JPoGNcJNLfE]Bloch : Servizio Sacro (Avodath Hakodesh) ????? ????? Parte IV-V - YouTube[/ame]
Ernst Bloch's ADOVATH HAKODESCH - in all five parts.
1959 Recording, New York Philharmonic, Leonard Bernstein, Conductor.
The immortal Robert Merrill, arguably the great Baritone who ever lived, Soloist.
The is THE cornerstone work of classical Jewish repertoire and some of the most incredible choral writing ever. I have conducted this work, coached pro choruses, done analyses of it. Just an amazing thing. This is great one to bookmark and sometime, when you are doing chores around the house and have an entire hour to listen while doing stuff, this is the work to listen to.
In the first video, in Part III (17:35 into the video, there is the "Silent Meditation" - yihyu l'ratson im refii.... just incredible, one of the most breathtaking moments in all of a cappela history).
