Cantors

You can explore the work of cantors by participating in Jewish chorale groups or other music-related activities. Another good strategy is to talk with cantors about their careers. Professional cantor associations can provide you with contact information for cantors who would be willing to discuss their careers. Consider attending a service at a local synagogue to watch a cantor at work. Finally, check out the following resources to learn more about Judaism and the work of cantors:
