Cantor Yaakov Lemmer Sings Zochreinu L'chaim With The Jerusalem Cantors Choir In Budapest Hungary 

I did too !! I am Catholic but I was reading about a singer that was training to be a cantor in his youth. So I searched & came upon this video. It is truly beautiful ! The range of his voice & the control is just amazing. Even if you don't understand the words, his voice tells the story. Just Beautiful !

Stay strong hope all is well

Yes, absolutely beautiful. Speaking of past...Lemmer's mood reminds me of my own childhood (1980s-90s) in Great Neck, NY Synagogues where the cantors were getting quite old already but still were cantors that echoed the cantors from the 1920s. I remember observing and wondering at the old women who would cry to the cantor's singing etc. Now, I feel like one of those old women! There is something very historical, nostalgic, real, just so beautiful and full of heart and full of Jewish meaning in this video.

My friend Rabbi Daniel Korobkin used to be the Rabbi of that shul. Glad your Scholar-in-Residence program was successful.

+Doris Jaffe I was fortunate to move to Allentown during his tenure here. He's an excellent rabbi, a scholar and a mentsh. So glad you posted your comment, because it brought me back to this video. Since my dear, wonderful mother passed away 6 weeks ago, I've been off RU-vid. But listening to cantorial singing is permitted even under the strictest limits of mourning. So thank you.

Sorry about the passing of your Mother A"H. Hamakom yenachem eschem bsoch sha'ar aveilei Tzion v'Yerushalayim.

+Doris Jaffe Toda raba.

@@ralphiew98 food for thought AMEN SHALOM

My Father rest his soul had the same sounding voice when he would sing after dinner

Moi, aussi.

Come on mate-sing like this for us then

We were not allowed in there when we visited Budapest from England. They had a guard outside with a machine gun? The singing is wonderful. There's two thousand years of history behind it.

Tony Conrad oh thats a shame, but did you contact them in advance to expect a stranger? Security is a very real problem for some communities and I don’t take offence if they want to see I.D. Thankfully nobody’s asked for my parents’ ketubah and a DNA sample, but give it time... 🙄
