	In The Torah of Music (Hadar Press, 2017), Joey Weisenberg brings together a comprehensive collection of 180 curated texts from the Jewish musical-spiritual imagination. In the first half, Weisenberg reflects on ancient texts alongside stories from his life as a musician. In the second half, Weisenberg presents a bilingual 'open library' of traditional texts on the subject of music and song, garnered from over three thousand years of Jewish history, to open up the world of Jewish musical thought to all who are willing to join the song. We're thrilled that The Torah of Music won the 2017 National Jewish Book Award for Contemporary Literature. Buy the book here.
	In The Heart of Torah, Rabbi Shai Held's Torah essays, two for each weekly portion, open new horizons in Jewish biblical commentary. R. Held probes the portions in bold, original, and provocative ways. He mines Talmud and midrashim, great writers of world literature, and astute commentators of other religious backgrounds to ponder fundamental questions about God, human nature, and what it means to be a religious person in the modern world. Along the way, he illuminates the centrality of empathy in Jewish ethics, the predominance of divine love in Jewish theology, the primacy of gratitude and generosity, and God's summoning of each of us with all our limitations into the dignity of a covenantal relationship.

	This Songbook is a collection of sheet music for the first four albums of Joey Weisenberg’s “Nigunim” series. In these compositions and on the accompanying recordings, you can hear older styles of Jewish music—nigunim (wordless melodies), z’mirot (Sabbath-table melodies), choral music, and traditional nusah (prayer chant)—organically melding with the spontaneous improvisation, liberated harmonies and indie soul music of the Brooklyn soundscape.
