Practice the tropes and services for your bar mitzvah or bat mitzvah. Click on a service to hear audio files according to two versions of the Sim Shalom Siddur. The “old” version is a bigger book that contains weekday services, and the “new” version is smaller (often called “Slim Shalom”) and only contains Shabbat and festival services.
