The text of Oseh Shalom (based on Job 25:2) comes at the end of the Amidah, a central set of blessings in every Jewish worship service that incorporates praise, petitions, and thanks. This setting was inspired by tango rhythms; though tango is not traditional in Jewish liturgical music, many congregations draw musical inspiration from traditional and popular music of diverse origins. Accompanied by piano and solo violin, this is an exquisite concert or service piece. |
