This unique acapella rendition of Shalom Aleichem by Yitzi Gross is from the acapella album "A Kumzitz in the Rain," created specifically for the Counting of the Omer and the Three Weeks, two annual periods of mourning and introspection when Jews traditionally refrain from listening to music with instruments. Shalom Aleichem is traditionally sung before the Kiddush as part of the Shabbat evening dinner ritual. This particular rendition only includes the first and last stanzas, although the tune can be applied to the others as well.
