It's been a rough month and today I cried (again, just completely overwhelmed) and I needed G-d so very much. Tonight as I lay here in the dark, listening to some favorite music, it suddenly came to me to listen to music for Him. It's amazing 💗 I ponder - quite often - how He brought our entire reality about by His mere breath, spoken word. 😳😳😳😳💗 Btw, I am not Jewish per se but I am in spirit in many ways. . .G-d has been leading me in this journey for a very long time.
I did too !! I am Catholic but I was reading about a singer that was training to be a cantor in his youth. So I searched & came upon this video. It is truly beautiful ! The range of his voice & the control is just amazing. Even if you don't understand the words, his voice tells the story. Just Beautiful !
Yes, absolutely beautiful. Speaking of past...Lemmer's mood reminds me of my own childhood (1980s-90s) in Great Neck, NY Synagogues where the cantors were getting quite old already but still were cantors that echoed the cantors from the 1920s. I remember observing and wondering at the old women who would cry to the cantor's singing etc. Now, I feel like one of those old women! There is something very historical, nostalgic, real, just so beautiful and full of heart and full of Jewish meaning in this video.
In Allentown, Pennsylvania, we had the great pleasure of having Cantor Lemmer as Scholar-in-Residence last month (Feb. 2015) at our synagague (Sons of Israel). He was just wonderful. Thanks to UA-cam and our Hungarian friend, people all over the world can have their spirits lifted by the khazzan's heavenly prayer.
+Doris Jaffe I was fortunate to move to Allentown during his tenure here. He's an excellent rabbi, a scholar and a mentsh. So glad you posted your comment, because it brought me back to this video. Since my dear, wonderful mother passed away 6 weeks ago, I've been off UA-cam. But listening to cantorial singing is permitted even under the strictest limits of mourning. So thank you.
This is my absolute favorite 💓 The most beautiful voice in the world 👏 I play this video when we go to our favorite Jewish food restaurants 😋 It sets a beautiful mood and everybody loves it 😊
❤️❤️✡️❤️❤️May God hear the prayers of His people, granting blessing, mercy, love, compassion, long happy peaceful life to us and all of Israel❤️❤️✡️❤️❤️ L'chaim!
This is really exquisite ! I love this song, this Cházan is just perfect on his voice And soul... I'm a Cházan too in São Paulo - Brasil, grandson of 3 polish jews and one hungarian, Ignátz Belz.
This prayer, as well as most of the main jewish prayers, was composed by the men of the great assembly (about 450-300 BC) and established to be recited from Rosh Hashana until Yom Kippur (10 days of repentance)
I have had the pleasure of hearing in live in New York, Florida at the Jackie Gleason Theater (in Miami) and at my former Synagogue where I was the Hazzan Sheini - B'Nai Torah in Boca Raton, FL. He is even better live.
Cantor Lemmer shows great controll, see 3:30-3:40 Loved it. I watched this video several times and I can't get enough of it KEEP IT UP YOU ARE GETTING BETTER BY THE DAY
We were not allowed in there when we visited Budapest from England. They had a guard outside with a machine gun? The singing is wonderful. There's two thousand years of history behind it.
Tony Conrad oh thats a shame, but did you contact them in advance to expect a stranger? Security is a very real problem for some communities and I don’t take offence if they want to see I.D. Thankfully nobody’s asked for my parents’ ketubah and a DNA sample, but give it time... 🙄
It's not bad that he is barely opening his mouth, it actually shows a great technique of holding a "mask". His larynx is down, but his mouth is kept at the same position. Only if it's very necessarily on very high notes, he opens his mouth wider to create a special sub-sound. I am currently learning academic vocal, so ye I kinda know this stuff. And I talked to Yaakov personally, he is a very good guy and a great singer.
hope that he not get high in head and low in hart. He have a touch in his voise wish I find beauty for the sorrowful jewish songs. He touched my hart with his singing. For me since I don`t understand a word of what they are singing, I respond on the feeling of the songs message, not only the singers la la la. have a good day from Norway
VOUS ENTENDEZ ECOUTEZ CETTE VOIX KOL A KAVOD KOL A KAVOD MAGNIFIQUE CANTOR MERCI HACHEM MERCI YAAKOV LEMMER C EST PECHE DE CHANTER AUSSI MERVEILLEUSEMENT
The cantors are requesting God that he should remember them for life for the coming year, and for him to grant them a good and prosperous new year. I hope I answered your question.
To Shiezoli; It is a song asking Adonai to Remember us and inscribe us in the book of life for another year. The key passage is "Remember us unto life, Sovereign who delights in life, and inscribe us in the Book of Life, for Your sake, O God of life. Zocreinu, Zocreinu L'Chaim melech hafeitz V'Chaim. This particular prayer is said only during the Yamim Noraim, the ten Days of Awe that begin with Rosh Hashanah and culminate with Yom Kippur. Hope the info was helpful.

It is a plea to G-d, translated thus; "Remember us for life, O King Who seeks to give life, and inscribe us in the Book of Life, for Your sake, O Living G-d ... this prayer is said only during the 10 days form Rosh Hashana to Yom Kippur, the first ten days of the Jewish year. The Jewish people seek only life. (As opposed to those who seek death, and for which reason there should only be One State of Israel, no second state that teaches its children the cult of death)
@shiezoli Hi. Incidentally ,that is not a song. It is a prayer, which is said during the ten days of repentence between the Jewish New Year and Yom Kippur. Cantors are religious leaders that are trained to sing [or chant] the prayers in the temple. This is the custom from long ago, and still is used today. I do not know who wrote it, or the date of origin, but it must be many centuries if not 1000s of years old.
Yaakov Lemmer’s voice is powerful and very emotional. His voice is a gift from God to be enjoyed by all the people.
This is my comfort go to song 🎵 💕 I am imagining the high priests and prophets singing this song 2,000+ years ago.
I am an Artistic Phoniatrician from Italy. Congrats for this video, and for this voice. terrific voice: beautiful and very healthy!

Que gran cantor!!!! ¿canta ópera?
canta reza importante a Dios - escribenos en el libro de vida, perdonarnos y denos merced
paulus, here is the text:
ווען עס קומען אן די צען פארכטיגע טעג, עשרת ימי תשובה,
האט יעדער ייד בלויז אן זאך אין זיין מחשבה;
זכרנו לחיים מלך חפץ בחיים וכתבנו בספר החיים
גאט זאל און געדענקען דעם לעבן צו שענקען
צו דעם יאר, דעם נייע.
אין צדיק בארץ אשר יעשה טוב ולא יחטא, דאס וייס דער ייד,
נישטא א מענטש אויף דער וועלט אפילו א צדיק- וואס זינדיק נישט.
און בעייט ער ביי דער רבונו של עולם: סלח לנו, מחל לנו, כפר לנו.
זכרנו לחיים וכו'...
און האט איז ערב יום כיפור,
כאפט א האן און שלאגט כפרות, לאזט צו אים אויס אלע צרות, יושבי חושך וצלמוות,
גייט אין שול, און טיילט נדבות, און בעייט:
זכרנו לחיים וכו'.
א גאנצע טאג געפאסט און געקלאגט, און אלע תפילות געזאגט,
געבעייטן סליחה ומחילה עס האלט שוין ביי נעילה.
ווערט אויפן הארצן, א ביסעלע גרינגער, און אלע יידן ווערן זינגען:
אוי אוי אוי...
זכרנו לחיים מלך חפץ בחיים, וחתמנו בספר החיים,
גאט זאל און געדענקען דעם לעבן צו שענקען,
לשנה הבאה בירושליים!
Thanks so much for posting the lyrics!!
beautiful & a beautiful shul. need to to know if Cantor Laszlow Fekete goes by the name Cantor Leslie Black in the USA :-)
