Mordechai Shapiro is musically gifted.
I Dislike him.
IMO he has too much of a nasal voice.

I wasn't opining on his talent.
I agree he is talented, but I do not like his singing.

I absolutely love Benny Friedmans "Whispers of the Heart".
I'm not who you think I am.

I believe you mean his music. He is an incredible individual.

Updated the wiki with numerous music-related threads. Not complete yet, but hope to finish at some point.

I omitted threads that discussed a single album or song. There are many of them, and didn't want to flood the wiki.

Anyone know why Avrohom Fried's Hartzig CD isn't on Spotify yet? Hopefully Daskal's will be on quicker.

Is the melody heard at 0:24 familiar to anyone here? (Song not recommended. I don't think this is
one of his good ones. Also, I haven't watched most of this video and can't vouch for its kashrus.)

Does anyone know who this singer is (and/or what "Kutchers" is)?
Those of you who enjoy chazzanus, what do you think of this song/performance?

Kutchers is a famous hotel in the Catskills that closed in 2013. I cannot identify if that is indeed the location, not can I identify the chazzan.

No music for me until right before Rosh Hashana.

I took it more from it expressing the feeling of someone who doesn't quite keep everything.

Can you listen yet? I'm interested to hear your reaction to this song.

כל לבבות דורש ה'

I understand the quote much better now. I do see how for him it is a beautiful expression of love for Hashem. I wonder if it is the same for many of those listening to it. It is music that will be spiritually uplifting for some and will likely bring others down.

I would change this quote
I am unfamiliar with his music but the emotions she describes it as evoking do not seem conducive to growth for most of the consumers of Jewish music. Sounds like more of a step down than up.

To say that I sceptical most consumers of Jewish music will take the spirituality out of it.

Pinky Weber's harmony 10:25 - 10:50 is stupendous!
