Niggun
This music is so sweet, that we can feel the presence of G-d amidst us. It is very comforting at this time of introspection, preparing the High Holy Days!

And it is for us to listen to it everyday, as a means to communicate with the Eternal G-d!
It should be played at the side of everyone who needs to feel this presence.

Wow
Listen to this niggun before making a Bracha. Any Bracha. Spend the time listening to the niggun thinking about the journey of how whatever you are making your bracha on came into your possession through the hand of Hashem. Focus on how it is such a gift to live in a time where you had such easy access to items and gifts that previous generations couldnt dream of. With thoose thoughts, make your bracha.

Keilim
Moshe, notes are just keilim for the oirois. Remember the story about Mittler Rebbe and Alter Rebbe. Mittler Rebbe was thinking about Atzilus and the partzufim while davening. Alter Rebbe was thinking about the shtender.

I wish I received musical education when I was young.

Music of Many Colors
You are very gifted Moshe.
My wife & I have listened to this together. When I listen with my eyes closed, I see beautiful colors floating past!

Thank you for sharing.

Lol, that's a good one
Sorry. I don't read notes. I never could sit through those lessons. Every Good boy does bla bla bla.

Much like the Chabad niggunim without words--and the idea behind a niggun w/o words is to be able to transcend yet another element of our lives for the purpose of attaining spirituality--I too believed that if i learned how to properly play music with notes, it would only weigh me down. Somehow, i was afraid that it would put my ability to feel the niggun on a paper with set rules.

Sometimes, we feel a niggun one way, and sometimes, we feel it another. Everyone doesn't fit into one category for clothing, or favorite foods, niggunim are no different.

Answer to your question, sorry, no sheet music, jo. I do hope, however, that you yourself were inspired from these niggunim, and inspire others.

Each niggun carries a special message, a special burst of energy--if you will. Please pass them along to whomever you can, and instruct them in doing the same.

be well
