cantoresq, that’s a good way to put it, bread and butter. the truth is, the way he would “get into” the davening was amazing.
i’m not a big Ganchoff maven, his chazzanus was very musical,(as was Glantz). I’ve heard his Hashir shehaleviim, which is beautiful. I also know his v’liyerushalayim ircha and Habet mishomayim. He was definately a masterful chazzan, but he doesn’t give me the same rush as stern does.
Another chazzan i enjoy very much is Leibele Waldman. his Baavur David is a classic. He was a zugger as well, he has a very nice Hineni Muchan from before sfiras haomer. also a haunting but beautiful Sarfei Maalah from Yom kippur.
what do you think of him? have you ever heard him live?
