MAQAM OF THE WEEK: HIJAZ              אלה הדברים

חזון ישעיהו דברים
מקאם חג'אז נגונים
עליון על כל רמים נשמת
רוכב עבים שועת
רודף צדק  ההודאות
Konte Fein  קדיש
בואי ברנה חג'אז  שמחים
עליון ונאדר  ממצרים
שיך סלאמה חג'אזי  נקדישך
אל השב עם נעלה  פזמון ספר תורה
On Shabbat Ekha, as we mourn the destruction of the Holy Temple, all sources, both those from Aleppo and Damascus, agree that prayers are conducted in HIJAZ, the maqam reserved to express death, mourning, and sadness. The Damascus tradition, as well as some Aleppo sources, specifically state that this is the only Shabbat of the entire year that Maqam Hijaz is applied. Even though, the Torah portion, Debarim (Deuteronomy 1:1- 3:22), is the first of a new book, Maqam Rast is overridden by Tisha B’Ab. HAZZANUT: Qaddish: Ya Goali Sarim (page 485).
