Duration: 58 s
Description: Ein keloheinu is a hymn sung toward the end of Sabbath and holyday morning additional (mussaf) services. In Sephardi and Yemenite traditions it is included in weekday services as well. Its earliest known appearance is in a 9th-century prayerbook (siddur R. Amram Gaon).

Franz Waxman’s The Song of Terezin [Das Lid von Terezin] (1964), one of the many Holocaust-related compositions by various composers centered around the Theresienstadt (Terezin) concentration camp experience, is also one of several musical explorations of poetry written by Jewish children interned there between 1942 and 1944 as they awaited transport to other camps, where most of them were eventually murdered by the Germans and their collaborators.
