Rabbi Baron said, "The program will feature last year's Kol Nidre and Yom Kippur guests, including Ela Weissberger, one of the few living Holocaust survivors from Teresienstadt Concentration Camp; Josh Fattal, an American hiker arrested by Iranian security forces on charges of espionage; Laurie Rubin, a blind opera singer; Ari Ryan, a victim of Anti-Semitism at the Hotel Shangri-La in Santa Monica, CA and Richard Kagen, who wrote a new song called "My Soul Is Yours," dedicated to his childhood and lifetime friend, the late Marvin Hamlisch."

In addition, the broadcast will include musical performances by the temple's cantors, Ilysia Pierce and Jordan Bennett, two Broadway performers, along with performances by the temple's choir composed of singers from the Los Angeles Opera and Los Angeles Master Chorale, led by the temple's music director and composer, Sharon Farber. Also appearing in the broadcast will be some renowned performers, including: Jason Alexander, Larry King, Jason Segal, Sela Ward, and in a moving tribute, Dr. Judea Pearl, the father of the slain Wall Street Journal reporter, Daniel Pearl. This year represents our 17th year of internationally broadcasting and webcasting our Yom Kippur services for the homebound on JLTV.
