Cantor and singer Moshe Zaretsky released a single in which he sang with his father - attorney and cantor Yehuda Zaretsky - the special melody by guitar artist Avi Barak on the chapter of Psalms, which is recited during the Ten Days of Repentance: "A song of praise from the depths, I have called you, the Lord.""

Moshe and his father were exposed to the melody many years ago, when they dined with Avi Barak and his family, and since then they have adopted the melody and sung it in dozens of communities on the High Holidays - including the Jewish communities in Panama, Costa Rica, Mexico, Brazil, England, France, Poland, Georgia, Sweden, Italy, Greece, Estonia, Finland, Austria, Singapore, Germany, and more.
A particularly moving moment that Moshe remembers with the song is its performance - in a duet with his father, as part of a performance at the 'March of Life' on the steps of the Ash Mountain at the Majdanek extermination camp.
Moshe's grandfather, Rabbi Chaim Zaretsky, served for over a century as rabbi in Hadera, as well as in Jewish communities in Austria and Germany, and especially loved the song.
On the 3rd anniversary of his passing, Moshe decided to release the song in his honor as a duet single.
