Cantor Barry Kanarek

On behalf of my family, I would like to thank everyone at Nanuet Hebrew Center for making us feel so welcome.  I am grateful for the good words I have received both on and off the bimah.

In becoming a cantor, I started out as a musician.  As a musician and synagogue member, I discovered how music- that international language of prayer- is a path to God.  It has the power to transform the everyday experience into something holy and awesome.  This is my vision of the prayer experience at Nanuet Hebrew Center- that of a community reaching out to God’s awesome presesnce through music

I hope that you will add your voice and join us.
