Collection of synagogue recitatives and choruses: Compositions for High Holidays, Sabbath, Holidays, Thish'a Be'av, Marriages and Funerals, and two choral settings of Psalms verses.
This collection is the main work of cantor and composer Abraham Ber Birnbaum. It is a treatment of liturgical music for Cantor and choir, and consists of two volumes: The first volume contains recitatives and responsory prayers, and chapters of choir for Shabbat's prayers. The second volume is dedicated to the High Holidays prayers. The collection has much enriched the synagogue music of the time.
