Learning with Reb Shlomo (52)– Let the Song Carry You Back
from Reb Leibish Hundert Weekly · host Reb Leibish Hundert
Reb Shlomo Carlebach wasn't performing — he was remembering out loud.In this shiur, Rav Leibish Hundert reflects on Shlomo Carlebach’s way of opening the heart through song, simplicity, and emotional honesty. Not stories about Carlebach, but an entry point into his inner avodah — how a niggun bypasses the mind, how brokenness becomes warmth, and how a Jew can return without speeches or explanations.This is about music as teshuvah, melody as truth, and why Carlebach’s songs still know things about us that we don’t know how to say.Listen slowly. Let the song do the work.
