Cantor Moshe Haschel and the Neimah Singers

 

Cantor Moshe Haschel was born in Argentina and in 1969 emigrated with his family to Israel, where he acquired his Jewish and general education at some of the most distinguished of Yeshivos. His love of music and his talent for singing led to his graduation from the Israel Institute for Cantorial Art in Jerusalem, where he studies with some of the most eminent teachers including Cantor Naftali Herstik and Cantor Moshe Stern.

After posts in Israel and South Africa, Cantor Haschel joined Finchley Synagogue in 1988 and in 1997 became Cantor at our Synagogue.

His voice is a lyric tenor of excellent quality. Critics have praised the natural attractive timbre of his voice and his control of dynamics, which are underpinned by his sincerity of expression, which combines passion and refinement. Moshe Haschel has received great acclaim in his concerts around the world as well as in numerous Radio, Television and sound recordings. He has performed in the 50th Anniversary celebration of the State of Israel as well as in the first Televised Holocaust Memorial Ceremony in the presence of HRH Prince Charles. Prince Charles was so impressed by our Cantor Haschel that he requested a copy of the CD for his personal collection!
