CANTOR SIROTA ON IMPERIAL RECORD IN HEBREW. (YIDDISH)

 

Gershon-Itskhok Sirota (1874-1943) was one of the leading cantors of Europe during the "Golden Age of Hazzanut" (cantorial music), sometimes referred to as the "Jewish Caruso."

 

I think only collectors know what a great voice Cantor Sirota had. It will amaze you.

I would put him up against just about any other tenor.

This record is in Hebrew (Yiddish), but the words to some don't matter when you hear his voice.

Some background noise but he overpowers it.

Caught in Warsaw during the Nazi invasion of Poland during World War II, he spent his final years living in the Warsaw Ghetto, and died in the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising in 1943.

Thanks For Looking
