The best Cantor in the world today is Chaim Adler. None of these other Cantor sing as naturally as he does. He rarely breathes-and his nigh notes are so gorgeous. All these young cantors like Helfgott sound alike-like clones. I like Baumgarten very much.
He has a natural effortless voice with beautiful tone. Helfgott and Ben Zion Miller shriek and have burnt out their voices. I love Yaacov Moltzen's beautiful tone.
But noone will ever be a Rosenblatt or a Hershman in our lifetime.
baumgarten is very good, however, he may be head and shoulders taller than us in chazonnus, but helfgot is far far above him.
there is no question about it. I would rank baumgarten after a few other chazzonim including yoinoson bleier (belz) from london and kohn (satmar) london born but in new york
Gentlemen, please stop this mean name calling and behave yourselves Helfgot maybe one of the best Chazanim today, I say one of only because his voice is missing maturity that only years of singing and suffering in life can teach. His ability to reach highs effortlessly, he will one day be the best As for Baumgarten, he has ability, heart and maturity. I think he could have had better promotion & publicity, as is the case for many great but obscure artists. Have a Great Shabbos & Keep singing!
thanks for showing us Cantor Baumgarten. That's great that he has some YouTube fans. I like him, too. But I thought the point of cantoring was to worship, not to perform. I feel weird applauding or accepting applause in church or temple. Then again, we're not in temple, we're at our desktops!
i did listen to him. he has a nice voice but not the massive power, control and baalei tfilah mixture of this great master. he's not even in his not even in his league. when you say "the rest of us" speak for yourself. you're yussie miller whoever he is no "chazzanit master"
they have said "he's the best ever, great voice and great potential." obviously it's not "just tallbrooklynguy" but 1000's of others all over the world where he has performed.
additionally, no offense but i never heard of "yussie miller" from your shul until you brought him up.
nynyboropark = chazzanmaven. started a new account to pretend he's someone else. how sick is that? some people have nothing to do with their lives.
this waste of sperm is some chassid from boro park thats on a anti lubavitch crusade. it is because this master happens to be lubavitch is to why he unleashes his hate and venom.
how much the world would be a better place without garbage like you in the world
compare helfgot to baumgarten. i appreciate power over everything. measure the decibels baumgarten has more bass and power. comes down to power. baumgarten has more. thats one main reason why hes better.
i'm gettng tired of losers like "chazzanmaven" and some others here trying to sell and promote their chazzanim and throwing dirt on great talent while doing it. just listen and enjoy or get lost and do something else with yourself.
retardmaven is a scout and idol for helfgot. he spends his whole day blogging youtube and throwing dirt on better chazzanim than helfgot in order to promote him.
what a low down thing to do. how dare you throw dirt on another chazzan especially when he is better, more powerful and more experienced than your guy helfgot.
change your name to retard maven. you are no chazzan maven.
lastly if you like helfgot keep it to yourself dont impose what you like on other.
i did. he doesnt have baumgartens power and baal tfilah passion combination. not even close. you know nothing about chazzanis. you are obviously trying to promote your chazzin since you are biased that he comes from you shul. but putting down a man who is a master of this generation is classless. you dont have a clue.
baumgarten has performed all over the world. he is more than a "synagogue cantor". he is a baritone tenor. very rare in cantorial profession he is far better than this yussie miller you are promoting or whoever he is. baumgarten is the greatest baritone tenor of this generation. your chazzin isnt even in this mans league.
Amazing! What power! The last thing this great master needs is a microphone. It's not just power but he has such harts and his voice is so full, thick and pleasurable to hear and what control of it all! This is greatness!
ok wtf retarded kids make more pleasant sounds when they have seizures and flop around on the concrete than this guy. this guy sucks ass at singing, he needs to get punched in the throat. shut his fat bearded ass up. when he turns his head you can see the back of his neck. looks like a damn pack of hot dogs. fry his ass up lets feed ethiopia with his fat ass! jesus christ he sucks ass!
he is a superb chazan and we need more of chazunim like him that is my opinion

Yes, he does! My father and my grandfather had all of Yosselle's 78 rpm albums, and I remember listening to them when I was in grammar school.
If not for the video, you would think it was Yosselle himself!
