High Holy Day Recordings for 2020
Members of the ACC and the congregations they serve are pleased to share resources of liturgical classics sung by solo cantors with accompaniment, choir, as well as some videos of pieces of liturgy. Additional new contemporary pre-recorded High Holiday repertoire can be found as well. Links to purchase copies of the music available from Transcontinental Music Publications have been added where available. Much of the content is available now and more will be added as our Cantorial colleagues complete their recordings and share them with you, with best wishes for a meaningful, safe, and fulfilling High Holiday season.

The Reform Movement in North America
More than 1 million Americans and Canadians are affiliated with Reform congregations, making Reform Judaism the largest Jewish denomination in North America.
Since its founding in 19th-century Germany, the Reform Movement has embraced modernity, incorporating innovation into all facets of Jewish tradition, education, and life. Reform Judaism’s commitment to social justice for all – women, the disabled, and, indeed, people from all faiths and backgrounds who lack civil and human rights – is a key pillar of the movement, contributing to its popularity among North America’s Jews.
The Reform Jewish Movement comprises nearly 900 congregations in the U.S. and Canada, more than 1,200 congregations worldwide, and the organizations and institutions that support the lay leaders, clergy, and Jewish professionals among its ranks. Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion, the Reform Movement’s North American seminary, is the first and largest Jewish seminary on the continent, with four campuses in the United States and Israel. In addition to ordaining rabbis and cantors, HUC-JIR and its Reform counterparts in Germany and the U.K. also train Jewish educators, nonprofit professionals, and pastoral counselors.
