YIGAL CALEK & THE LONDON SCHOOL OF JEWISH SONG - REUNION

[@Nooticus]

I'm young so I've never ever heard of this choir before today. This was so unbelievably enthralling and emotional to see and hear. I wish Yigal Calek a long life

[@Nooticus]

May his memory be a blessing. I just heard. So sad.

Thank you for posting ..I was the youngest member of the London Pirchim Choir at the time which I was honoured to join at the age of five (around 1970)....I went on to have a successful career as a stage and screen actor..Now over fifty years later I remember all the lyrics (even if I still don't understand them) and haunting melodies as though it were yesterday...Thank you Yigal!

[@harrylevy3569]

20 year old listener here. First time hearing some of these Yigal classics and I've been infatuated with the music ever since. Listening on repeat and picking apart the beautiful harmonies. Thoroughly impressed they all remember their parts from their childhood and also believe their matured voices have vastly improved their sound together. Kol Hakavod to all participants.

[@Nooticus]

22 year old here who watched when it went viral 2 years ago. same thoughts here, and now im back after seeing he passed away. a real shame that some absolute idiots in these comments sections are saying stuff like 'Such a shame today's generation is so misguided'... uhhh. we are 2 people in our early 20's who are literally right by the top of the comments section. these people are surely just being hateful and moaning just for the sake of it.

[@howardgaventa9707]

Howard Gaventa: I sang on the 1st record and have the privilege of singing Ki Heim Chayenu with Nicky Borgenicht and singing Hamavdil with Doodi Rosenberg. My memories of over 50 years ago are still vivid. Going to Stamford hill with my father every Sunday for choir practice, which my father loved listening to. Yigal coming to our house with a cassette tape of him teaching me how to say yoim not yom. My mum Rica buying many records to give to all her friends. My sister Tina singing all the songs at home with my mum. I have taught all my children the songs from that record, and we sing yevonim every Chanukah together. Yigal brought the choir to norrice lea to sing at my barmitzvahs party. We sang the songs at my boys barmitzvahs. Tina, my brother David and I sang the songs with my mum the day before she passed away in 2020. So yigal has been a great influence in our family's life for all these years.

[@RabbiPiniDunner]

Wonderful memories!

[@NWLHPaediatrics]

Wow Howard! Wonderful memories. How typical of your mother, everyone’s dear Auntie Rica, to give these records. She was so full of love of people and of Yiddishkeit and generosity was her trademark. We have missed her now for nearly 2 years and your father Norman for50

[@ngoodman7516]

Thank you Pini! I just read about Yigal Calek ז"ל in the Jewish Tribune and what memories this video brought back of practicing with the Pirchim choir (just a couple of us boys from Stamford Hill joined the Golders Green/Hendon crowd). And what an absolutely tremendous finish to the evening with אני מאמין! Though, as a boy in 1970, I knew Yigal as a young man, I'll remember him as portrayed in your video, leading his tisch singing Hashem's and Israel's praises with gusto. Long life to us all.

[@rationalistssj6540]

When Jewish music was 'Jewish' and was 'music.' This is so moving to watch. It's a shame Yigal didn't produce more than six albums. [There actually was another album back in the day called "the Return of the London School of Jewish Song," with great songs, like "Ha'am," "Eliyahu HaNavi," "Kol Mevaser," etc, but, as I understand it, not many copies were produced and it's very hard to find. I'd be very grateful if someone would upload it!] No subsequent choirs hold a candle to the London School as far as quality, each song a veritable masterpiece of talent and authentic Jewish feeling. The intricate harmonies and creative arrangements of these eternal songs are also remarkable. Reb Yigal, may you merit a refuah sheleimah in the zechus of all ruchniusdike pleasure you have given us for all these many years. A grateful fan, Lakewood, NJ

[@simmyweber6420]

Wow!!!! I was so moved by the whole event. Genuine authentic jewish music with great ahavas yisroel for a legend.I grew up on these precoius nigunim. Until Moshiach they will be singing Yigals Mareh Kohen and Chamol on Yom Kippur. No other choirs will ever have songs sung more than a few years. Thank you for this incredibly moving video . Het Gerstner NOW THIS WOULD BE A GREAT HASC SURPRISE

[@mostlymusicdownloadservice4913]

Wow what an eloquent and articulate comment that really sums up the TRUTH about real Jewish music!!! Yes, Yigal's stuff is truly the best there is....Such a shame today's generation is so misguided.

[@rationalistssj6540]

@@mostlymusicdownloadservice4913 Thanks for the (eloquent) compliment! In total, I believe there were actually 8 "London School of Jewish Song" albums produced and [for the most part] masterfully composed by Yigal (including the lost one I referenced in my comment above), the first of which is "Ma Navu" (1970), and the last of which is "Mama" (1997). In addition, Yigal conducted the (somewhat difficult to find) Pirchei Yerushalyim album, as well as (correct me if I'm wrong) "the New York School of Jewish Song" in the late 70's, early 80's (3 albums; not sure of he conducted all 3 of those). Finally, the choir's electrifying reappearance at Hasc 4 is equally unforgettable. All the best to all the best!

Watch Yigal at 51:30. That movement is unique to Yigal as a conductor. The shoulder movement and palms upwards. Conductors generally conduct with palms down, or tending downwards. Yigal will often have his palms upwards. Think of the cover of the Mah Novu album. It gives a whole different feeling to the choir.

[@motherofperl8368]

👆This precious Pirchei Reunion with Yigal Calek- Watching Zaidy’s coming together to sing the same songs 50 yr later ….it evokes so much emotion. (I’m glad I don’t cry for my ears, so I can at least hear the songs.) Growing up in the 60’s we lived, we sang and we loved Yigal Calek’s masterpieces!! We anxiously awaited every next release. I still remember the excitement when my father said he picked up the new release. Ripping open the plastic packaging. The smell of the new record. Seeing the choir grow up to become erliche Zaidys of today…is also quite an emotional moment... These songs anchor me right back to the 70’s. Watching this today….made me think how much klal yisroel has accomplished in the past 50 years - how we picked ourselves up from the ashes and rebuilt a new Jewish world- All the celebrations and tragedies we've lived through & experienced together, as a real family…..This reminds me, no matter what color Yarmulka or what size…. we as Yidden are a family- share the same memories, the same goals. Klal Yisroel are all traveling together as brothers and sisters, sticking together, in this one huge charter bus journeying through golus. Let’s all Daven that on Zos Chanuka that this Charter Bus picks up epic speed, so we can finally arrive at our destination- the Geulah haShlaima!!

I was extremely moved to see Yigal conducting the choir like it was 50 years ago!!!! I suggest next time to have the reunion on zoom so us foreigners can join in!!!! I am especially delighted that באין מליץ יושר was sung so beautifully. I make a point of singing it if I am Chazzan on ימים נוראים and very few people join in!!! We all wish Yigal a רפואה שלמה . Michael Wilschanski 1970-74.

מרגש עד דמעות ואני מקפיד על הקפה בשמחת תורה עם כל השירים הקצביים של פרחי לונדון . הצעירים פשוט לא מכירים אבל המבוגרים אוהו איך הם קופצים . לילדים אני מנסה להסביר שזאת שירת המלאכים של ילדותי

Indeed. How fast those 50 years have flown by. Having grown up in your fathers Shtibl Michael I miss those happy days but it’s great to reminisce with this KZbin. Great to see how Yigal still brings out the talent. Wishing Yigal will for many more years
