WELCOME GUEST BA'AL TEPHILLA AMICHAI GUTERMANN
We are honored to host professional Chazan, Amichai Gutermann, a native of Basel, Switzerland, as our guest ba'al tephilla for Musaf this Shabbat. He serves as a cantor at the Great Synagogue of Zurich (ICZ) and as a regular guest cantor at the Edgware United Synagogue in the UK. A graduate of the Tel Aviv Cantorial Institute (TACI), he studied under Cantor Naftali Herstik Z”L and Raymond Goldstein, following earlier mentorships from Cantor Gideon Zelermyer (Montreal) and Zol Sim (New York). Amichai also contributed as a background vocalist to Leonard Cohen’s Grammy-winning “You Want It Darker” and has performed extensively in Israel, Canada, UK, Germany, Switzerland, Austria and Czech Republic.
Thank you to Peter and Catherine Lyssy for sponsoring Amichai's visit.
