This week's highlights:

• We welcome back Rabbi Yitzchok-Boruch Teitelbaum, known in his Monroe, NY, community as der Pshischer Rebbe, for Pesach greetings and words of wisdom.


• We meet Chazan Dr. Moshe Moskovitz, the High Holiday cantor at Los Angeles’s Congregation Shaarei Tefila, to discuss his background, his yiches (he’s the grandson of two post-war Carpathian cantors), and his journey into chazones (the musical art of leading Jewish prayer in the Ashkenazi tradition), as well as Pesach from a cantorial perspective — guiding us through several cantorial recordings along the way.
