Hashkiveinu (Bernstein)
''Hashkiveinu'' is a work for solo cantor (tenor), mixed chorus, and organ composed by Leonard Bernstein in 1945. The work is six minutes in length and uses the prayer text from the Jewish Sabbath evening service. The work is in Hebrew, and the transliterated score uses Ashkenazic pronunciation.
==Commissioning==
''Hashkiveinu'' is the result of a commissioning project from 1943 to 1976 by Cantor Dr. David Putterman for a series of contemporary music at Park Avenue Synagogue in New York City. Putterman believed strongly that the synagogue music—particularly American synagogue music—would only endure through adaptation and creativity. In the preface to ''Synagogue Music by Contemporary Composers'', Putterman wrote:
The Jewish prayer-book of today is the result of development through the ages and reflects the Jewish spirit of these ages; similarly, the music of the Synagogue is a veritable growing treasure from Biblical times to present. The music contained in this volume is not meant to replace the traditional fixed prayer modes, but is rather intended to enrich the music of our time.〔David J. Putterman, “Preface,” in Synagogue Music by Contemporary Composers (New York: G. Schirmer, n.d.): v.〕
At the time of the commissioning, the rabbi of Park Avenue Synagogue was Milton Steinberg. Steinberg wrote, "The preservation and recapture of the past of Jewish music. The adaptation of it to the musical present. The stimulation of new Jewish musical creativity.”〔David J. Putterman, “Preface,” in Synagogue Music by Contemporary Composers (New York: G. Schirmer, n.d.): iv.〕
