Today, as I passed by the Great Synagogue, memories of its musical tradition that has sadly faded, nearly brought me to tears. Now, in London, I proudly carry on that legacy and have brought to a very special place what I couldn’t do anymore in Stockholm after the decision not to have services with Cantor and organ.

I pray for its revival and offer gratitude to those who once adorned it with beauty. Let us also pray for peace and acceptance of diversity, both in Stockholm and the world. May God bless us all.
