4:30 PM FILM
Director: Eric Greenberg Anjou
Country/Year: USA, 2005

Running Time: 94 min.
Format: DigiBeta
Cantor "Jackie" Mendelson takes us on an expressive journey through the golden days of Chazzanut (Jewish liturgical music) when cantors in New York had chart topping recordings, and fans like the Beatles and the Rolling Stones. Mendelson goes back to his roots on a tour through Boro Park, back to the famous deli his father once owned, visiting the synagogues and cantors that influenced him as a young man. Powerfully woven throughout are the commanding sounds of cantorial song. With the help of colorful commentary by Alan Dershowitz and Jackie Mason, A CANTOR'S TALE tells the story of Chazzanut in America and Jack Mendelson's commitment to preserving and teaching this traditional sacred music.
