Last night, on Motzaei Pesach, after the Ma’ariv prayer in the Shuvu Banim Beis Midrash, the first counting of the Omer was held, accompanied by singing and niggunim. As is well known among Breslov Chassidim—our people—on the first counting of the Omer they would customarily gather together to say and sing the counting of the Omer.

After the blessing, The Rav shlit"a began to play and sing for about twenty-five minutes “LaMenatze’ach BiNeginos,” and afterward “Ana B’Koach” seven times. He concluded with the recitation of “Ribbono Shel Olam”—in song—and through this, abundant shefa will be drawn down in all the worlds.
