       Milos Nikolic — Odessa Bulgar by Abe Schwartz

Klezmer — A modern-day performance of a Bulgar by Abe Schwartz, the "Klezmer King".

       Sheyibone Beit Hamikdash

Cantorial and proto-klezmer combined. Cantor Oysher starred in three Yiddish films in the 1930's and 1940's. Pronounced in Ashkenazic.

       George Gershwin — Preludes — Andre Watts, piano

Listen to the second, starting at 02:15 and ending at 06:17.

       Gershwin — It ain't necessarily so

Contrast with the Barchu, below.

       Barchu, followed by Torah reading

Perfect! I cried while watching this. Pronounced in Sephardic.

       Kol Nidre, sung by Perry Como

He is singing the traditional Carlebach cantorial arrangement. I have kinda mixed feelings about this...

       Lewis Berman's Night and Daybreak

That's me :) I based this on an old recording of an Abe Schwartz composition called At the Beginning and Daybreak, below.

       Abe Schwartz — At the Beginning and Daybreak. If you're really pressed for time, you can start at 02:18. 1930's, I do believe.
