Could be just the microphone is turned up. On the other hand, I know a guy who is just 5'4'' and 100 pounds in weight, and his voice shakes the building. Sounds like a loud speaker. When asked about it, the explanation he offers is that his head and neck width are out of all proportion to the rest of his body. So you better check what Simon's collar size is.
impressive indeed, only that mike! Wonder of the voice is really that powerful, but the guy definetely has talent, technique is not yet perfect. He should coach with Bergonzi or one of the greats
I heard him in person once at an event. The effect of the voice on the audience was stimulating. The head cantor of the evening, running the show (forgot his name) claimed that Canor Cohen had one of the best voices in the industry. I would not know, but when hearing him live, it did sound quite special.
Great thanks!

IN this performance, I find the voice of one of the choir members very amazing. He sounds as good as, or better than, Chazan Cohen. WHO IS HE?

Raymond playing his own arrangements is worth hearing in its own right. Shimon has an Amazing voice.
