On the Cantorial Feature, two very nice selections by one of the foremost Chazzanim of the past 50 years, the great Moshe Stern. Born in Budapest in 1935, he emigrated with his family to Israel after World War II. He officiated all over Israel and in 1968 he went to Johannesburg and in 1973 became Cantor of Brooklyn’s famous Beth El Congregation. He has concertized all over the world since then and has made many recordings. His late brother in law Cantor Noah Griver (1927-1975) was Cantor of the Beth Sholom Congregation here in Washington, where I grew up. Cantor Stern lives today in New York. Here are the two selections:
