Chassidic Kaddish

This popular version is chanted by many Chazzans during Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. Originally written for the end of the Ne'ilah Service, this upbeat setting for the full Kaddish was written by Cantor Jacob Gottlieb (1852-1900) and was made famous by the "King of Cantors" Yossele Rosenblatt (1882-1933) to whom it is often mistakenly attributed. Some may ask why this joyous and fun music was written for such a solemn occasion, but  Yom Kippur can be interpreted by some as Yom Ki Purim, a day like Purim. Enjoy Safam's live version of the Chassidic Kaddish. Happy and Healthy New Year from your webmaster. Click the triangle in the box below to listen. {saudioplayer}kaddish.mp3{/saudioplayer}
