Can you find a less embellished version? It's hard for me to get the tune with all the chazanut. –  Charles Koppelman Sep 19 '12 at 14:01
@CharlesKoppelman -- try VirtualCantor. I don't know if he has the kiddush, but if not, I know he has the first few lines of Akdamus -- same tune. –  Shalom Sep 19 '12 at 15:36
@Shalom if that's supposed to be the Akdamut tune, I know it. I couldn't tell with all the "embellishments" –  Charles Koppelman Sep 19 '12 at 16:29
here's a less-embellished version if you mean the Akdamut/Chatan Torah/aufruf version: youtube.com/watch?v=QViMUMWOqVs –  Charles Koppelman Sep 19 '12 at 16:35
@CharlesKoppelman, thanks! I'll add that link to the question instead of mine: it's much better. –  msh210 Sep 19 '12 at 16:41
