With Rosh Hashana, the Jewish New Year, just around the corner, it is both a time of celebration and reflection. Characterized by sweet traditional foods like apples, honey and pomegranate seeds, Rosh Hashana – which means “Head of the Year” – is a chance to wish for a sweet year ahead.

In addition to the sounds of the shofar, set the right mood for your holiday season with this playlist of songs that represent the sweet, the contemplative and the joyous vibes of Rosh Hashana.
