Some relaxing music, a few moments of peace — a welcome break from an ongoing, unsettling coronavirus stalemate. The new Project Relax, sung by Avraham Fried with special guest child soloist, Shulem Brodt (a grandson of Reb Abish Brodt), offers an oasis of calm to house-bound, quarantine-fatigued fans.
