Question

What is the required length of the shofar blast during the Rosh Hashanah services?

Answer

During Rosh Hashanah, there are three series of blasts: Tashrat - Tekiah, Shevarim, Teruah, Tekiah. Tashat - Tekiah, Shevarim, Tekiah. Tarat - Tekiah, Teruah, Tekiah. The length of the Tekiah in each series should match the length of the Teruah in that series. This means that when blowing Tashrat, the length of the Tekiah should be equal to the length of the Shevarim and Teruah. In Tashat, the Tekiah matches the length of the Shevarim.
