Yaakov Shwekey יעקב שו...

Every Friday at sundown, our closing bell rings and we step away from the hustle and bustle to welcome Shabbos, our greatest investment.

Thank you, @tv10israel and @katznati, for inviting me to the @nyse to share my thoughts on Shabbos and its relationship to business, live from Wall Street!

The music of Shabbos is music steeped in tradition and carries many accents. Piyutim and pizmonim - sacred poetry of praise - are meant to be felt as much as understood. Guided by Middle Eastern modes, each phrase brims with the character and color of an ancient musical heritage. These melodies do not belong to one place or one era, but to a people who, across generations, have never stopped singing their faith aloud.

The final medley of The Music of Shabbos, “Pizmonim,” is out now! Stream it everywhere and on themusicofshabbos.com.

Music has the power to shape us in ways we don’t always realize. Achashverosh understood this and chose not to have music at his party. What we allow into our ears enters our neshama, and it has the ability to elevate us or pull us in the opposite direction. The content we choose matters, because over time, it doesn’t just influence how we feel… it influences who we become.
