Presence marks Sam Glaser's eighth Jewish album and his most sophisticated and spiritual to date. This collection is inspired by the Jewish month of Tishrei, an introspective and ecstatic period that includes the High Holidays, Sukkot, and Simchat Torah. Using Hebrew lyrics from liturgy and Psalms interwoven with Sam's English interpretations, Presence focuses on the everyday opportunities for a enhancing one's relationship with the Creator.
