Drawing on archival sources, interviews with cantors, and photographs, this title traces the development of the American cantorate from the nebulous beginnings of the hazzan as a recognizable figure through the heyday of the superstar sacred singer in the early twentieth century to a diverse portrait of cantorate, which includes women and men.
