Cantor Yitzchak Meir Helfgot performs the deeply moving prayer “Shma Koleinu” — שמע קולנו — during Selichos at Park East Synagogue in New York City, accompanied by a choir conducted by Yossi Schwartz.

“Shma Koleinu” is one of the most heartfelt prayers of the High Holiday season. We ask God to hear our voices, have compassion upon us, and lovingly accept our prayers. Its words express our longing for forgiveness, mercy, and renewed closeness to God as we prepare for the New Year.

Helfgot’s extraordinary voice, together with the power and richness of the choir, brings the emotion and majesty of this sacred prayer to life.

Wishing everyone a Kesivah Vachasimah Tovah—a happy, healthy, and sweet New Year. May we all be inscribed and sealed for a year filled with blessing, peace, and joy.
