CD Reviews

Extremely fine performances of an eclectic collection.
segaltj@email.msn.com | CHicago,USA | 05/03/1999
(4 out of 5 stars)

"Mizrahi's strong tenor makes for very exciting listening, with items ranging from gregorian-chant -like ancient melodies to more popular 20th century works. The disc makes for a remarkable tour of jewish liturgical music."
A haunting and revealing musical collection
Reckless DC Music | Whitneyville, CT USA | 01/20/2000
(5 out of 5 stars)

"While I am an admirer of Mizrahi's voice, it is the variety and quality of the repertoire that struck me most about this recording. Mizrahi and the conductor and arranger, Matthew Lazar have collected a broad selection of fairly old Jewish music that reveals a strong connection to early Christian and middle eastern music. Mizrahi's powerful and flexible tenor is up to the challenge of shaping and reshaping the ancient melismatic music in a haunting and revealing manner. I was initially struck by the power of his voice and the intensity of his falsetto on Respondemos, a Sephardic-Ladino piece from the High Holyday repertoire. The overall sound of this recording, in terms of its production values adds to the mystical element. I understand there is a follow-up CD to this recording. I can only hope it is as moving."
