From the great stages of New York, London and Israel, Yossi Fraenkel has become an international superstar.

Mr. Fraenkel will very shortly start working on his debut solo album of his father Gershon Fraenkel's music. Though Mr. Fraenkel has performed with orchestras throughout the world, he has never forgotten his roots. He continues to perform traditional chassidic and yiddish music to audiences all over the world. To sum up the talents of Mr. Fraenkel, we quote "Mr. Fraenkel displays a talent that resists confinement and is an explosion of religious faith."

"Master of the Universe You who declares that the daughter of such and such will marry such and such, You who spoke and the world came into being, You who acquire the people of Israel as Your bride stand behind this young couple who are about to build their home, give them the strength and the vessels with which to build it, establish in their home love, togetherness, peace and friendship, fulfill the desires of their hearts with goodness and their parents who over many years raised their children and invested in them everything that they have, give them full measure of nachas so that they should merit another link in the chain of generations. Amen."

I am sure that in the next wedding that you will hear me perform you will join the prayer of my heart and enjoy the music.

Yours,

Yossi

For over five years I have had the merit to enhance the joy at many weddings throughout the spectrum of the community, Chassidic, Litvish, Ashkenazi and Sephardi. You may have seen me at at least one of these weddings standing on the stage singing and seeing to it that I bring joy and harmony to the bride and groom, their parents, their family and you, the guests.

Let me lead you for one moment into the depth of my heart to share with you a little secret. Each time before I go on stage I utter this short and heartfelt prayer.

 

"ריבון העולמים אתה שיושב ומכריז בת מי למי, אתה זה שאמרת והיה העולם, אתה זה שהמשלת את כנסת ישראל לכלתך, עמוד לצידם של בני הזוג שעומדים בשעות הקרובות לבנות את ביתם, תן להם את הכוח והכלים לבנותו איתן, השכן בביתם אהבה אחווה שלום, ורעות, מלה את משאלות ליבם לטובה, וההורים שבמשך שנים כה רבות גידלו אתת ילדיהם, השקיעו בהם את כל אשר להם, תן להם מלוא חופניים נחת, שיזכו לראות עוד חוליה בשרשרת הדורות, אמן"
