Five Chabad singers unite in a heart-stirring performance to revive a long-forgotten Lubavitcher nigun.

The words of the tefilla “כִּי רֶגַע בְּאַפּוֹ” are set to the Krementchug Nigun, a little-known melody often sung by R’ Avraham Lison A”H of Kfar Chabad.

The performance features singers Mendy Jerufi, Simcha Friedman, Nemuel Harush, Yoni Shlomo and Yisrael Jerufi.

Arrangement by Moshe Laufer, with Benny Laufer on the piano and mix by Yaniv Blass. Video by Yosef Greenwald.

  1. This an old poilishe niggun that many sing to the shabbos zmiros hashomer shabbos. My zeida remembers it from his shtetel in galitzia. The way R Avraham Lison (and many Chassidim did and still do) would daven was to sing random niggunim between or to the words of davening. I remember watching him daven Friday night in Merkozi shul in Kfar Chabad after I’d already finished the seudah. This is just a famous niggun that Chabad Chassidim picked up somewhere along the years that he davened those particular words to.
