On the Cantorial Feature, two very nice selections by a fine Chazzan of the preceding generation, Cantor Arele Diamond. Born in New York in 1920, he was by his teens, serving as a full time Chazzan in the New York area. During World War II, he served as a chaplain in the American Army and conducted many services for the men in uniform. After the war, he served a number of congregations in New York and he passed away in 1975. The two selections come from a 1950 album made for the ABC Company in New York.
