* Shlomo Carlebach known as Reb Shlomo to his followers, (14 January 1925, Berlin — 20
October 1994, New York) was a Jewish rabbi, religious teacher, composer, and singer who was
known as "The Singing Rabbi" during his lifetime. Although his roots lay in traditional Orthodox
yeshivot, he branched out to create his own style combining Hasidic Judaism, warmth and
personal interaction, public concerts, and song filled synagogue services. At various times he
lived in Manhattan, San Francisco, Toronto and Moshav Mevo Modi'im, Israel. Carlebach is
considered by many to be the foremost Jewish religious songwriter of the 20th century. In a
career that spanned 40 years, he brought down thousands of holy melodies and recorded more
than 25 albums that continue to have widespread popularity and appeal. His influence also
continues to this day in "Carlebach minyanim" and Jewish religious gatherings in many cities
and remote pristine areas around the globe.
