All volumes of the HPLS Siddur include prayers for the Nusach Ashkenaz, Nusach HaAri (Chabad), and Nusach Sefard versions of the prayer service
All six volumes of the HPLS Siddur (prayer book) can be used for both the Orthodox and Conservative Ashkenaz Prayer Services.
Prayers are included for the Nusach Ashkenaz, Nusach HaAri (Chabad), and Nusach Sefard versions of the service.
The HPLS format makes the service variations easy to follow.
The first preliminary morning prayer is Modeh Ahnee (I give thanks). This prayer doesn't mention God's name and some say it while still in bed. The preliminary morning prayers continue with the Asher YahTzahr blessing (said after going to the bathroom), and the N'teeLaht YahDahYim blessing (said after washing of the hands).
Then a meditation is read and the blessing for putting on the Tallis is said.
The prayers up to this point are basically the same for nucach Sefard, Ashkenaz, and HaAri (Chabad). The order, however differs slightly and the HPLS siddur uses various tools to clearly note the differences between the three nusachim.
The preliminary prayers continue with the songs Ah'dohn OhLahm and YeegDahl (summary of the 13 Principles of Faith), the 15 Morning Blessings (BrahChoht), the Ah'kehDah (binding of Isaac), the preliminary Shema Yisrael, and various prayers relating to the temple service. The Preliminary Morning Prayers section concludes with the Rabbi's Mourners' Kaddish.
Part 2, Verses of Praise (PsooKay D'zeeRah).
The purpose of the Verses of Praise is to prepare the worshipper for the main prayer. The Verses of Praise contain psalms and passages for all Nusachim,
The following listing is inclusive for the three nusachim and the differences are noted accordingly:
Psalm 30, Mourners' Kaddish, BahRooch ShehAhMahr (opening blessing to PsooKay D'zeeRah), HohDoo (1 Chronicles 16:8-36), Hashem MehLehch, L'chai OhLahMeem, Psalm 19, Psalm 33, Psalm 34, Psalm 90, Psalm 91, Psalm 92, Psalm 93, Psalm 98, Psalm 121, Psalm 122, Psalm 123, Psalm 124, Psalm 135, Psalm 136, Ashrei (Psalm 145), Psalm 146, Psalm 147, Psalm 148, Psalm 149, Psalm 150, VahYvahRehch DahVeed (1 Chronicles 29:10-13), Nehemiah 9:5-11, Exodus 15:1-19 (Song of the Sea), NeeshMaht (Sabbath addition to closing blessing), YeeshTahBahch (closing blessing to PsooKay D'zeeRah), Sheer HahMahAhloht (Psalm 130).
Part 3, Shacharit (ShahChah'reet).
Although Shacharit actually refers to the whole Morning Service, this part of Volume 5 is termed Shacharit to distinguish it from the Preliminary Morning Prayers and Verses of Praise sections. The Shacharit section contains the Morning Prayer and is almost 100% transliterated. It consists of the following major sections: Barechu, Shema Yisrael, Morning Amidah for the Sabbath, Morning Amidah for Festivals, and Hallel.
