He became Cantor of the Beth Sholom Congregation here in Washington and remained until moving to Montreal in 1963, where he remained until moving to Israel in 1976. He opened a school for the training of young Chazzanim. He passed away in 2008. His was a classically trained lyric tenor of great range and power. The two selections on the Cantorial feature are from a 1958 album recorded for Famous records shortly after his arrival in the United States.
