englisch"Vergessene Stimmen" is the first comprehensive publication on Jewish cantors and opera singers. There has hardly been any research or scholarly publication on this topic until now. The book describes on the one hand the art of the cantors (hazzanut) - on the other hand the close connection between the world of cantors and opera singers. Some important opera singers came from East Jewish cantor families. "Vergessene Stimmen" recounts the path of these singers from the synagogue to the opera stage, from Eastern Europe to Central and Western Europe and also overseas. Through the complete and carefully laid out list of cantors and singers as well as the discography, the book arouses the interest of Jewish readers and also of connoisseurs and lovers of opera music.
