| Description: |
| Cantor Jack Mendelson takes us on a journey to a time when cantors were like movie stars. Jews would go to synagogue to hear the great cantors, just as others would go to the opera or movie houses to see the giants of the day. With the advent of sound motion pictures, Jewish audiences of the 30s demanded to see and hear the great cantors of their day. In this compilation of cantorial greats, we are treated to memorable film recordings of outstanding voices of Hershman, Roitman, Katchko, Malavsky, and others. |
