Yaakov Lemmer SIngs Sh'ma Yisrael by Cantor Leib Glantz in Krakow

Every year at the end of June the largest Jewish Culture Festival is held in Krakow Poland, The opening concert is a Cantorial concert where liturgical music is celebrated.
The concert took place in the famous Tempel Synagogue. This is a beautiful synagogue in the Kazimierz district. The Moorish Revival building was designed by Ignacy Hercok, and built in 1860--1862 along Miodowa Street.
Also featured at this concert were cantorial greats as Yaakov Motzen and Azi Schwartz accompanied by the Lishmo'a El Harina Male Choir under the direction of Maestro Meir Briskman. At the piano we hear Maestro Menachem Bristovsky. Concert produced by Yossi Notkowitz of Halleluyah Productions.

Gracias por la hermoza canción, todo lo mejor a Uds.

Sounds like those old classic recordings of cantors from the past......BEAUTIFUL! Love the Lemmer bros.........

[@TitanMoon746]

Yanke lemmer is hands down the greatest chazan of our time

[@charlesrae3793]

I'm not Jewish, but I love this music. In this you can hear the whole history of the Jewish people, and this is what imparts an extra-musical dimension, for me. It is not just an individual, who is singing here, but as representative of a people.

קול מדהים. "שמע ישראל" של לייב גלנץ קשה לביצוע, וחזנים רבים כשלו. הביצוע של יעקב למר מושלם ומעולה, ואף עולה בהרבה על הביצוע של מאיר יצחק הפגורט.

GOD HEARS HIS PRAYERS IN MUSIC 🙏🏻

Chazen Lemmer, as a retired chazen , all I can say is Tov Miode . It is an honor and pleasure to hear you recite our holy works!

[@deerfieldnews4358]

Excellent and his little brother Shulem Lemmer,gifted on a level to match The Late Great Moishe Oysher and Yosselle Rosenblatt!

[@traceyauchterlonie9413]

The Most Soulful music around.

[@SuperHartline]

Lemmer is a master of the 'ticklen' the quavering and plaintive vocal expertise that Heaven hears and that could make an atheist melt.

[@TheMASCHWARTZ]

Well said 👏

Once in a lifetime, a voice comes forth with beauty and passion divinely delivered. Cantor Yaakov Lemmer, you surpass all mortal voices to a higher level .....G-d surely delights in hearing the blessing he has given you, coming back to him.

Remarkable! He makes it look like it takes no more effort than speaking.

[@josh1615]

This is without a doubt Yanky Lemmer's debut as a world class chazzan!!!

[@adetaal9842]

Impresionante!!!!

[@lenesherif4147]

YOU stand at the entranche to heaven

[@sandergoldberg4508]

Yanky Lemmer, in my opion is the greatest chazzan alive. Not just the timber of his voice and its control, but he has perfect pitch. Other great chazanim, like Helfgot and Mizrachi, although powerful, have (albeit barely perceptible) not quite perfect pitch.

[@MightyTenor]

He's elegant and tasteful without being precious. His INTONATION is always dead-on. The voice is beautiful and well-produced, without the shraying and screaming of Helfgot or Mizrahi.

[@deerfieldnews4358]

Second greatest lil brother Shulem the greatest living cantor right now both talented and gifted.

[@AvramiSegalAbe]

His brother Shulem has insane control, watch some of his videos.

[@tristanhnl]

Does anybody else think his voice is somewhat reminiscent of Richard Tucker in the higher register? Amazing voice!

[@rationalistssj6540]

I think Tucker had a bigger voice, but his is sweeter -- and still pretty powerful!

[@tristanhnl]

@@rationalistssj6540 , even though I've never heard Richard Tucker in person, because he was way before my time....I'm fairly certain yes, he does have the bigger voice. Not very many tenors have a voice bigger than his, period LoL. For the people who have heard him sing at the Metropolitan, they will tell you he is a dramatic tenor through and through 🙂

[@rationalistssj6540]

@@tristanhnl Hi. Yes, even Corelli respected his capabilities, and they shared the stage at the Met. In any event, I think Yanky Lemmer is criminally underrated. In many respects, he's better than Helfgott as a Chazzan, certainly easier on the ears, and he has great control.

@@aklouslibby9693 There is practically no Jewish community in Poland , and maybe few Jews so assimilated that you can hardly call them Jews .

[@ttee6990]

yanky, you are liquid gold, melts my heart. you should be more famous then your brother shulem. it bothers me he became more famous then you and you are way better then him and probably got him where he is. anyway you did good to stay to your roots. and stayed frum and didnt go to the wrong places.

[@renayitz]

I attended a chazzanut weekend in Jerusalem where both Lemmber brothers sang in a concert and then on Shabbas. Yanky even sang this Shema during Musaf. It was the first time they sang together. Both are great in the different timbre of their voices, separately and as a duet. Shulem uses social media more than his older brother, but both sing chazzanus and respectful secular music. In Israel, Shulem labeled himself as a singer and chazzan.

[@chrisrushlau]

And they shall be tzitzit for you, and when you look at them you will remember all of the Lord's commandments and do them and not follow after your heart and after your eyes which lead you astray. Rabbi Groucho translated it this way: "who[m] are you going to believe, me or your own eyes?" Rabbi L. Frank comments, "Don't look at the man behind the curtain." Would God allow our eyes to deceive us? Yes as to minor disturbances like colorful auras when you're running out of oxygen, but no as to things that you honestly see there which aren't there. Our bodies are not a minor oversight by God, they are the whole idea, the bond of our relationship.
