On the Cantorial feature, two very nice selections by a chazzan famous in South America for many years, Cantor Pinchos Borenstein. Born in Warsaw in 1902, he sang with Cantor Gershon Sirota as a child and he was one of the six Borenstein brothers, all renowned Cantors. In 1922, when he was only 20 years old, he left Poland and went to Argentina to assume the pulpit of the legendary Passo Temple of Buenos Aires. There he remained for 33 years until his untimely death in 1955 of a heart attack at the age of only 53 years old. He is fondly remembered by Argentinian Jewry to this day. He recorded and toured extensively and was world famous.
1. V’Shomru-recorded for Columbia records in Argentina in 1937.
