ArticlesOld Prayers – New Melodies |
The Cantors’ Review was the magazine of the ‘Association of Ministers Chazanim of Great Britain.’ It ran from 1969 – 1982 and was edited, first by the Rev Michael Plaskow, by me, then by the Rev J Landenberg, and finally Mr Elie Delibe. It was issued very infrequently and ran to 28 issues.Although intended mainly as a parochial publication, to publicise personal news to its members, it contained many interesting and informative articles on the subjects of Jewish music and Synagogue worship. There was also the occasional light-hearted item, as well as cartoons and stories.So that these articles should not be lost forever, most of which only ever appeared in the magazine, I have decided to put on my website for the enjoyment and enlightenment of a wider audience.
(I am not aware of copywrite issues concerning any of these articles. In the event that this does apply, please contact me and I shall remove the item in question.) |

My late step-Father was a great grandson of Cantor Josef/Chaim Ber Zipper, who moved to Vienna in the early 1860s and died there in 1884.
Do you have any information about Cantor Zipper?
Many thanks.

I’m afraid that I have no more information on Chazan Zipper. If I come across any I shall happily pass it on to you.
I’m sorry I don’t
