This review is from: Traditional Cantorial and Concert Favorites (Milken Archive of American Jewish Music) (Audio CD)

The art of the cantor is pretty much lost on the general American public, but that's a shame. If you listen to Simon Spiro, you can hear one of the great vocal artists of the twentieth century performing musical compositions which could stand with any classical master.

My personal favorite on this CD is the "Sheva B'rachot"--"The Seven Blessings." Every Jewish wedding ends with this service, and this piece is worthy of a royal affair.
