is a must-have for any synagogue musician or anyone planning a Jewish wedding. The beautifully-arranged selections are drawn from a wide range of Jewish cultures, including Eastern European, Sephardic, Israeli, and of course contemporary American, some well-loved favorites and some welcome surprises. One of the volume’s best features is the flexibility it offers in the choice of instrumentation, ranging from piano or organ solo to string quartet, trumpet, violin, and more. This volume is eminently worth buying on its own, but combine it with KOL DODI, Feinsinger’s earlier volume of vocal music for Jewish weddings, and the two-CD set of pieces from both volumes (also called KOL DODI) and you have all you’ll ever need for classy, beautiful, and authentically Jewish weddings."

— Cori Ellison, Artistic Director, Opera Company of the Highlands

"I am consistently impressed by your wonderful arrangements."

— Cantor Robin Sparr-Rothman , Worcester, MA

"With this volume, Jewish Wedding Music: Processionals and Recessionals, Jewish couples now have fully orchestrated processional and recessional music that is both authentically Jewish and also reflects the solemnity, awe, and joy of the marriage service. . . Above all, the music in Jewish Wedding Music: Processionals and Recessionals is beautiful, reflecting Mary Feinsinger’s brilliance, sensitivity, musicality, and deep feeling for Jewish culture."

— Cantor Richard Botton, Cantor Emeritus, Central Synagogue, New York, NY

"Thank you so much for your musical brilliance."

— Cantor Barbara Slader, Portland, OR

"The music in Jewish Wedding Music: Processionals and Recessionals is an invaluable resource for me as a cantor.... The day after I got the book, I needed to find music for a wedding. I opened the book, and there was Feinsinger’s magnificent arrangement of the Bobover Processional wedding march. Though written for instrumental ensembles, it was easy for me to sing as a nigun. Everyone loved it.!"
— Cantor Michael Kasper, Nyack, NY

"The music is strikingly lovely."

— Rabbi Jim Cohn, Greenville, SC

"With the publication of this book of instrumental scores, the author has completed a most impressive and much needed project that began with KOL DODI I, an earlier collection of vocal arrangements. Together with the previously released two-CD set of pieces from both volumes, it is a tremendous resource for anyone wanting to enhance the setting of a wedding that will be both moving and based in tradition. These arrangements cover a variety of moods and modes, providing stylistic choices appropriate for both contemporary and more traditional marriage services. This is a truly comprehensive, beautiful collection."

— Mary Padilla, PhD, Armonk, NY

"Any couple — Jewish or not — will find the perfect music for their wedding ceremony here!"

— Evelyn Tam, Queens, NY

… I am taking the opportunity to thank you for Kol Dodi. What a superb collection! Many thanks on a beautiful job!”

— Cantor Judy Daniel, Columbia, MD

"I just love your music!"

— Cantor Karen Dworsky, Thousand Oaks, CA
