- The Yeshiva Boys Choir is a brand new ensemble to me, but I am BLOWN away by their talent. This is a full breakdown on their performance of "Adir". You're not going to want to miss this!
Special thank you to those of you in the Jewish Music community who have commented on my Miami Boys Choir video and have educated me in the amazing world of Jewish music and culture! It is such a thrill for me to learn more about this wonderful culture, and I am looking forward to reacting to even MORE amazing music in the future!

Love these two groups. This and Miami. IF you don't know of them, I highly recommend Drakensburg Boys Choir. Not just singers but entertainers too. Even if you don't react, watch ;)

Was great!
I was in this song. The reason for the planes is because it was filmed next to JFK airport. YBC was a blast. I was in it for 3 years. I am in the YBC 6 album
Yesss! This is my childhood. Thank you for giving Jewish music, the care and spotlight it deserves. You discuss something so personal to us with so much care. Plz give us more YBC reactions!
So glad you enjoy it!
Same
When you said they sounded as ONE voice and yes. They train a lot to sing a song in Hebrew about a prophecy that ONE day, Hashem will be ONE and his name will be Echad or 1 across all earth when humanity will be Finally redeemed and be together with our creator.
I was in this choir. Thank you for reacting. As for ur question there are auditions at the beginning of every year and of 25 auditions there are probably 10 accepted. The only way to move up in the choir is experience. It's a great confidence builder and overall really fun. Thank you
Greeting from Peru!
That soloist who is super expressive is always like that, not only during emotional and dramatic parts, he's always super invested into what he's doing
I especially love the inclusion of the instruments along with the choir. Well done everyone! 🇨🇦
Your video's are awesome! I appreciate your kind comments as a Jewish person and so a human.
Keep up the amazing video's 🔥🔥🙏🙏💕💕💕💯💯
Thank you so so much ♥️
Cheers Nick for the analysis and breakdown for Adir's magnificent song from The Yeshiva Boys Choir.
Your observation about connecting with the text is spot on. That is why it is so important that the director pick age appropriate songs. Pre pubescents singing about failed love affairs or having sex is not only wrong, it is creepy. Also poor directing is having kids sing songs that, to them, are limp and babyish. Kids will relate to songs that are fun and energetic. At this age, this video exhibitsthe type of music that they should be singing. Great job, gentlemen!
This is so amazing! Thank you so much, this guys are great! They have another wonderful and toaching song that's called "daddy come home" and it's just... you have to react to it! Have a nice day😊
I second that! Love your other Jewish music videos and appreciate you appreciating our music. If you want the ultimate epic voice in Jewish music check out Shulem Lemmer. You'll thank me.
I realy enjoy you breaking down the song and explaining 👍
Another wonderful reaction to a wonderful video. I come to this as an appreciator of Jewish music, but after your review of the Miami Boy's choir, I took a look at your reaction videos to other types of music too, and they were just as enjoyable, plus I learned something new. Keep up the good work!
So glad you enjoyed it! I love offering my feedback and analysis of music. I have a lot of training in vocal technique and interpretation which is a fancy way of saying I have a lot of opinions 😅
What an awesome review. These kids are great!
Thanks so much!
This song makes me cry. Thank you for reviewing it and being open hearted enough to watch and listen. ❤
i love that you have been doing these videos! I grew up listening to yeshiva and miami boys choir and its such a joy listening to you break down their songs. thank you for doing this!
This takes me back. Saw Yossi Newman just last week. I remember when they launched this group.
I really enjoyed how clearly you structured this video
Thank you!!!! I never knew to appreciate the music I grew up on, until now:) Thanks Nick!
My pleasure - glad you enjoyed!
The composer/arranger/conuctor is Eli Gerstner. He has another choir of adults called "The Chevra" and your mind will be blown by them. Please can you review them?
The boys were great. I loved listening to you review the performance. Thank you. A long time ago when I was growing up, I was in a choir, singing solos and more and now, many decades later, I have been asked to join a choir and listening to you has been inspirational. Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it
Wieder viel dazu gelernt. Danke 🥰
You're so positive and encouraging! A real teacher! Thanks!
Thank you! 😃
wow solid reaction, really enjoyed all the info, thx a million!
My pleasure!!
I love your reaction to these music videos. You explain so much that goes on just to create such beautiful songs. Thank you so much. Keep it up! Looking out for more content like this from you!

Wow Amazing!! Thanks so much for reacting :D
My pleasure!!
Another great response! Really enjoy watching your tube channel! Keep the videos coming. You got a new subscriber 🤗
Awesome! Thank you!
This was great!
I want to share that growing up we would kind of laugh at how all the jewish boys choir singers sing with such drama. After watching your video I now understand that thats part of what makes them sound so good! (Still gonna make fun of that though 😜)
Check out v'ohavta by the same choir- it's an OG song and gosh is it AMAZING!!
This time you really nailed it. Your insights, your interpretations and of course your knowledge really was spot on. I really enjoyed your replic on this one.
Thank you kindly!
Love your evaluation.Thanks for taking the time
I Love there Songs.
jewish kids like those in
The Miami Boys Choir and in The Yeshiva Boys Choir have great voices. The Yeshiva Boys Choir is run by Yossi Newman a Brother In Law of Chananya Begun the son of Yerachmiel Begun of The Miami Boys Choir
I didn’t know that - so cool!
Thanks again for another great reaction video! And I just checked the view count again on the Miami Boys Choir reaction video, And as I said that it will be getting more views then in the past few months it seems that it doubled the amount of views you ever got on any of your reaction bravo for that keep it up!
Thank you! It’s true - it’s my best video to date!!! Thanks for your support, it means a lot
cant wait for more reactions of jewish music!!
Another great review! BTW the video was shot in Howard Beach or The Rockaways, right next to JFK airport, hence the airplanes.
Great review, laughed at that vibrato bit.
Glad you enjoyed it and got a laugh 😅
Also love the tips you give during your reviews!
They have another great song makes me cry every time called daddy come home it’s so beautiful
So great to see another person review Jewish music :)
Watched your review on The Miami Boys Choir as well and enjoyed that too.
If I may ask, if it's okay with you to cover more of these, Miami has plenty of videos on their site. ("Yavoh" comes to mind, a personal favorite of mine hehe) Nonetheless, great insight 👍
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed it 😁
Wowww!
Please make another video about Yeshiva Boys Choir! Recommends "shabchi Jerusalem"
Love from Israel❤
btw that soloist you loved is called dovid yakov (DJ ) wartelsky He acted on Zusman
Look into the New York Boys choir as well.
Since about 2012 Yeshiva Boys overtook Miami Boys in popularity, though been around since the early 2000s, and this is Yeshiva Boys most popular song of all time. Eli Gerstner is a talented composer who first worked with singers and boy bands before kids choirs where he has has great success. There are several defunct Jewish kids choirs from over the years. There are two smaller ones that exist today, but its mostly Yeshiva Boys and Miami Boys. However while more popular, for the past decade Yeshiva Boys hasn't really launched peoples singing careers despite their years in the industry, while half the Jewish Music industry is Miami Boys alumni, and more in total from their overlap years. but who knows what the future holds
However Kids Choirs have a long history in Jewish Music. Central European Jewish communities (Germany, Austria, Hungary, etc) would have a cantor for Shabbos and Holiday prayer services and a full boys choir to assist. While there are only about a dozen synagogues as far as I know that still have them (Mostly in the US and UK), these traditions from the 1600s are the basis of the modern kids choirs like these. In the 1950s the first vinyl albums of Jewish Kids choirs were these synagogue ones, and then in the 1960s the Orthodox Youth Group, Pirchei, started their own, poaching the best talent across the board , and soon few others came along in the 60s and 70s. Only 2 from that era lasted to the 1990s, and Miami boys is the only one still around. I have some of those old vinyl's.
Also many Jewish schools have their own small choir as well, for school events and the school dinner for donors, etc. Its a big part of our culture.
yep but now with this whole tiktok thing miami boys choir look like they are taking back their popularity
@@jewishweddingtracks It depends on how Begun handles the next album. The problem is, Miami Boys last few albums were very stale, and the songs were not that memorable. Not the kids the fault, but we see Begun maybe running out of steam. We shall see how he handles it, and maybe he gets some songs from others, rather than all composed himself, some of his alumni like Goldwag do amazing composing.
@@michaelbcohen well what i meant is that in the last few months miami boys choir has been getting much more attention than yeshiva boys choir has been getting miami boys choir did some massive concert the last few months like in hollywood and ncsy and hasc. but on the other hand yeshiva boys choir did not do any concert in the last few months. btw did you see footage of miami boys choir in hollywood? i never saw so much people and energy by jewish concert when miami boys choir sang yerushalayim the crowd went so crazy it was even writen up in the mainstream media
also. Miami is the only choir that actually sings 100% live. There is a massive difference here.
wow
Please do more!
I will!!!
Great video
Glad you enjoyed it
More Jewish music please!!!
💯
Did you miss the smooth modulation at the end wow I almost didn't realize
Is amazinggggggggggggggggggggggg
אתה ממש אוהב יהודים... כל הכבוד
wow😍
Thank you for this very informative reaction. IMO Whitney Houston's performance of the Star Spangled Banner should be replayed for every Super Bowl and other US national events. It's nice to hear other people giving it a try, but no other performance of this difficult song comes close. The other stellar performance of a national anthem on YT is Roberto Alagna's 2009 performance of La Marseillaise on the TV show Au coeur de l'armée de terre.
Der Chor macht inen sympathischen Eindruck.
Eli Gerstner is an alumni of Miami Boys Choir . YBC is the boys music group he heads. On top of that he heads an adult group called chevra. All adjectives do not do it justice
Please review more Jewish singers!! Like Motty Steinmetz or Ishay Ribo…
Their accents sound funny when singing in Hebrew.
thank you. check out nissim black
Soloist at about 7 minutes is heavily pitch corrected/autotuned though right? You didn't seem to mention that bit and how you're reading the voice underneath the editing
Love it! Here are a few more recommendations for some classic Jewish choirs.
The London school of Jewish song
Tzlil vzemer
Amudei sheish
And more MBC & YBC songs!!
Thank you so much!
what about Pirchei Toronto and of course Pirchei London!
Wow those are from way back in the 80s. I don't think the sound quality will be the best to be honest. But the talent is definitely there. London School of Boys Choir was my favorite because of the British accent!
They were singing about G-d :)
Did you say there's a translation in the description?
Just added it - thanks :)
@@nickhiggsthesinger thanks too! i find it harder to appreciate songs i don't understand :-)
Being a YBC addict I use the transliteration to sing along to: Adir adireinu, Hashem Adoneinu, ma adir shimcha b’chol ha'aretz.
V'haya Hashem l'melekh al kol ha'aretz;
Bayom hahu yihyeh Hashem ekhad u'shemo ekhad.
Listen to chazzanut. Especially the Ashkenazi one. Listen to Naftali Herstik, Yitzchok Meir Helfgott, Moshe Stern and Nissim Saal
th-cam.com/video/Q8jjYb1XsdE/w-d-xo.html
Cantor Naftali Herstik and his son, Cantor Netanel Hershtik with the Jerusalem Great synagogue choir and the israeli philharmonic coducted by maestro Elli Jaffe
Check out daddy come home from yishiva boys choir
I’ll check it out - thanks !!!
That one always brings me to tears.
Hi Nick can you plz react to motty stienmentz ,ishay ribo, hanan ben ari, Shulem lemmer they are amazing singers I love when you react to jewish music
Listen to Lipa Schmeltzer and you'll hear what Jewish talent is
How in the world did you not detect the autotune @6:27 and @12:22??? Any person, professional singer or not, would be able to detect that!!!
Yes, yeshiva choir, I used to listen to them a lot when I was a kid,
Takes me back in time.
Thank you ❤️

th-cam.com/video/xF7UVW6PLig/w-d-xo.html

🔥❤🇮🇱✡️
Here's YBC singing a cappella from Psalms 27:7-8, interestingly, the song begins with the second part of verse 8. Beautiful voices. th-cam.com/video/e_BrIN-JF6E/w-d-xo.html
נעם לייט
Try to react any Filipino singer
Did you know what were they singing about?? Its awesome because they were 1 voice and singing about Hashem uShemo Echad. Or the name of God our creator is ONE and HE is ONE unity and One day he will come to earth to be one with his creation, humanity across all earth. They are very passionate about the torah lyrics and prophecy mentioned in their lyrics.

У вас юношеское восприятие детского голоса.....да голос интере ен,но впереди ломка и что потом???
I got trauma from this presentation. Let listen for 2 minutes without interruption, for god's sake!
You’re more than welcome to watch the entire video. I’ve linked it in the description
@@nickhiggsthesinger Thank you.
Plz react to bts
whats a professional singer? he's not famous
Professional singing implies a trained voice, a person who has vocal training and understanding of mechanics of voice, sound etc.
wow
