Spiritual. Egalitarian. Welcoming.

Beautiful music has the power to stir the soul.
Such music is an essential element of the worship services at Temple Emanu-El of Palm Beach – both in terms of instruments and voice.
Cantor Meir Finkelstein is more than just a Cantor – he is a renowned singer and composer whose music is played in synagogues all over the world. We are delighted to have him at Temple Emanu-El of Palm Beach and invite you to join us at Services, either in-person or online.
Our pianist, Claudio Waisgluss brings incredible musical instincts to our worship services. He’s not only a skilled musician, composer, and artist, he’s also a mensch who brings joy and warmth to all that he does.
Please click on any of the blue boxes below to listen to just some of the musical artistry you are likely to hear at services at Temple Emanu-El. All of the music here was recorded live during services, so what you will hear in the recordings is what you will experience in person in our Sanctuary.
Our Jewish tradition tells us to “Sing to God a new song…” We hope the music of Emanu-El will help you do just that.
Enjoy!
