What could the blues have to do with the music of the ancient Temple? And why can one melody hold both sorrow and joy?

Rabbi Amichai Cohen welcomes Eduard Shyfrin—a scientist, entrepreneur, author and blues musician—for a conversation that begins with the blues and opens into the questions of the soul. Raised in a home filled with jazz, blues and books, Eduard returned to playing during lockdown and discovered a new passion for composing.

He shares his intriguing theory connecting the blues, sacred music and Jewish tradition. From there, we explore the personal crisis that led him to Torah and Kabbalah, the difference between measured time and inner time, and what his search has taught him about life, the soul and how we should live. His books include From Infinity to Man and The Relativity of Death.

Recorded on 8 October 2026.
