As the Jewish High Holidays approach (Rosh Hashana begins the evening of Sept. 18), here’s a short YouTube clip of Rabbi Benny Zippel of Salt Lake City. He’s demonstrating the shofar, a ram’s horn used during services to sound a call to worship.

All goes well with the demonstration for about 25 seconds. Then the rabbi gets some unexpected accompaniment.
