Tzivos Hashem is running a worldwide competition for Jewish children to mark 30 years since the youth movement was established by the Lubavitcher Rebbe.
“The Power of Jewish Children” will feature entries from children from around the world, who will compete for prizes totaling $30,000 cash and a trip to New York.
COLlive is showcasing some of the entries:
Name: Motty Hertz
School: Grade 5, Oholei Torah
I enjoy helping out my parents on Shlichus in Bensonhurst, Brooklyn, by using my musical talent to play for the community and holiday events.
My entry:
I play ‘Nye Zuritzye Chloptzi’ on the piano, my favorite niggun.
The second song is called “Odeh Hashem – Thank you Hashem” which I composed myself from the Rebbe’s Kapital 109.
He will go far.
Thank you, Motty!

This young man exhibits a full range of sophisticated musical creativity. He plays piano with progressive smoothness and ease, exhibiting just the right mixture of talent and hard work. With respect to his singing, the wide tonal spectrum of his voice reveals an innate ability that will serve him well as he develops and refines his voice. Most striking is the depth of the boy’s musical composition: its poignancy is rare. Congratulations, Motty.
