SHLOMO CARLEBACH
4
New York (JTA) — Rabbi Shlo-
mo Carlebach, 69, who touched
thousands as a rabbi and song-
writer, died last week.
Born in Germany in 1925,
Rabbi Carlebach came with his
father, Rabbi Naftali Carlebach,
to the United States in 1939. Af-
ter his father died in 1967, he
and his twin brother, Rabbi Eli
Chaim Carlebach, took over
their father's synagogue on
Manhattan's Upper West Side.
Formally called Congrega-
tion Kehillat Jacob, it was uni-
versally known as the Car-
lebach Shul; 1,500 people
gathered outside the synagogue
for its leader's funeral.
He was to be buried in Israel
this week.
"Hello, brother," or "hello, sis-
ter" and "peace" were his trade-
mark salutations.
He recorded his songs on
more than two dozen albums,
songs with lyrics mostly from
the traditional prayerbook and
the words of the prophets.
In 1965, Glen Richter and
Yaakov Birnbaum, leaders of
the Student Struggle for Sovi-
et Jewry, asked him to compose
a song for the movement.
The result was the tune "Am
Yisrael Chai" — "the Jewish
people live" — which became
the theme song for an entire
community.
"We had our march around
the United Nations with 3,000
students, and we asked Shlomo
to sing the song. Within min-
utes, everyone was singing it,"
said Mr. Richter.
"From the time his records
started getting in to the Soviet
Union, we would be told that
this was the movement that
• sustained Jewish activists," said
Mr. Richter.
"From the time his records
started getting in to the Soviet
Union, we would be told that
this was the movement that
sustained Jewish activists," said
Mr. Richter.
Rabbi Carlebach traveled to
Moscow in the early 1970s,
singing strong as KGB agents
glared. Two decades later, as
Communism was fading and
Judaism beginning to return,
he went back.
But Rabbi Carlebach was
trained as a traditionally Or-
thodox rabbi.
Rabbi Besser remembered
that Rabbi Carlebach said the
man "became so religious that
he doesn't talk to me anymore."
Rabbi Carlebach had resi-
dences in Manhattan, Toronto
— where he had a wife and two
daughters — and in Israel on
Moshav Me'or Modi'in, which
he founded. His twin brother,
Eli Chaim, died about four
years ago.
Like the great blues musi-
cians who died penniless, Rab-
bi Carlebach received barely
any money from his songs; at
his funeral, contributions were
sought to pay for burial ex-
penses. While his songs were
recorded by dozens of other mu-
sicians, he received little credit
and fewer royalties.
