Three Conversations With Two Extraordinary Cantors

Understanding What We Sing: Three Conversations With Two Extraordinary Cantors

If you missed the wonderful three-part presentation explaining and investigating the backstory of our core High Holiday music, we can’t overstate how fascinating it was to hear our Senior Cantor Daniel Mutlu and one of his mentors, Cantor Richard Cohn, who answers questions from journalist (and congregant) Abby Pogrebin about why we sing what we sing. Click below to sample the episodes about the songs of Elul, Rosh HaShanah, and Yom Kippur – to give you a taste of their dialogue and the cantors’ gorgeous singing.
