Diwan Ashira

Renewing the Millennia-Old Art Form of Piyyut

For over fifteen centuries, piyyut—Hebrew liturgical poetry—has accompanied the Jewish people through their spiritual, communal, and family life.

Diwan Ashira carries this ancient tradition forward with a fresh voice: original texts set to traditional melodies, performed by leading voices of today’s piyyut revival.

Welcomed by both religious communities and cultural institutions, these piyyutim now resonate in more than a dozen communities across the globe, from Israel to North America and Europe.

A living, rooted, and inspiring project—one you’re warmly invited to be part of.
