It is part of the “Ne’ilah” the closing of Yom Kippur prayers. It has been adopted in Ashkenazi rituals.<br /><br />https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sN3_wp-qeq8<br /><br />Also on Yom Kippur liturgy<br />-<b>Adon Haselihot</b><br /><br />This ancient Sephardi prayer (possibly dating from the days of the Geonim) is sung during the days of Awe and on Yom Kippur.It is now widely known in Israel and abroad and has been popularised.<br /><br />Here sung by Avihu Medina<br />http://play.tojsiab.com/SkJpQWZ6dUxJRUEz<br /><br />-<b>Kol Nidre</b> always gives me goose bumps. Also a very ancient prayer in Aramaic aimed at releasing vows not fulfilled during the year in those days when people didn’t use to write contracts. Later its intention is limited to Jews meant who were forced to convert.<br /><br />Here is the Sephardi Kol Nidre with the introductory prayer <br />https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1lh5rVwS8_Q,<br /><br />-<b>Avinu Malkeinu</b> is recited Yom Kippour.<br />Here is my favorite by baryton David Serero<br />https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pHcIPxIjUEY<br />Sylvianoreply@blogger.com
