Jolson’s rendition is heartfelt. Jan Peerce’s rendition is mind blowing. Perry Como’s rendition is sweet.

Versions by Udi Spielman & a distant cousin, now deceased, Jan Peerce, may excel vocally (do a search for them), but no versions have the passion of Jolson's.

This performance is so very nuanced by Jolson…he truly has the “tears” in his voice that every Cantor has.

Al had a marvelous voice and superior rhythm when performing. He started the USO shows to entertain soldiers overseas and was insteumental in getting black people hired in Hollywood.

Odd, in the 1927 and 1981 versions of this, the role of the old Cantor is played by a gentile (Warner Oland and Sir Laurence Olivier).

In my almost seventy years on this earth, I have heard countless versions of this song, but for my money Al Jolson's version in 'The Jazz Singer' is truly THE BEST version, hands down.❤

If you pay close attention --which I just did for the first time -- he just repeats the first 8 words of the Kol Nidrie over and over and over and over again but never makes any progress from there and omits 90% of the prayer despite singing for almost 3 minutes...

@@lyndawilliams4570 I’d like to think there’s some symbolism behind that. Since his character hasn’t practiced his faith in a long time. He probably forgot a good amount of it but still needed to sing because his father couldn’t; if that were true it kinda makes sense

There are many great renditions of the Kol Nidre (All Vows), however, this one sung with such soulful passion by Al Jolson in the 1927 classic, The Jazz Singer, is unsurpassed.

Kol Nidre is sung at the very beginning of the service, in fact it is done before the sun goes down. The candles would have been lit before the service started, before the holiday started.
@dovbarleib32562 жыл бұрын
Candles that are lit in advance of sunset can and should remain lit. One cannot extinguish an existing flame or use it to light another candle on Shabbat or on Yom Kippur. But all candles lit before sunset are allowed to burn out. There is even one candle that stays lit until the end of the fast, to bless the remnant fiery light from the World of Souls once the fast of the 10th of Tishrei has ended.
