Reb Yossele Rosenblat:
Yosef (Yossele) Rosenblat (1882-1933) was a cantor (Chazzan) and composer who is regarded as one of the greatest Ashkenazic cantors of all times. He left a sizeable legacy of Jewish-Eurropean cantorial music, which contributed to the shaping of Chazzabut in Ashkenazic communities. He composed and adapted more than 600 works, most of them prayers and some, Jewish folksongs. Many of his works are considered cantorial classics.
Unique and rare lot.
