Ohhhh... Where are the days, when a Chazzan was a real Chazzan...

I adore his version of  Misratze B'Rachamim is that on here ? Mazel and Brocha to all.

What fine singing. This was done in 1931? So MORDECHAI HERSCHMAN would have been about 43?

Another reminder of how the vocal arts have declined...

A truly great voice! TY Nate.

[cantorandopera]

giving me inspiration as i type.  I adore this singing, and Hershman was a wonderful proponent of the Chazzanut style. I hope this way of singing doesn't die - it deserves to be heard for all the ages.

[jozefsterkens]

Great singing in the old tradition.

[kiska48]

Wonderful!Beautifule voice!

[vpo2g2]

He was a terrific spinto tenor who could have had a great career in opera

[Cantormatis]

Now THIS is a chazzan.

[joeocho88]

I am surprised that he needed music. His voice is so expressive. It's perfect, actually.

Thank you so much for posting this beautiful example of how acappella is supposed to sound!
