Music of Sandton

Video Clip Recordings by Chazzan Avron Alter

Even in childhood, Avron had a passion for music, both as a singer and pianist. He joined the Great Synagogue, Wolmarans Street choir, just after his grandfather, Cantor Israel Alter retired. He cut his musical teeth by singing in the synagogue choir as a soloist and gained liturgical knowledge from his father, Eleazer Alter, and his choirmaster Rev. Himelstein. He studied classical and jazz piano and voice production, and has performed with many bands throughout the years. Avron has appeared in many concerts and shared the stage both locally and internationally with a long list of renowned artists. Currently, he is the Chazan of the Beth Hamedrash Hagadol Sandton. Avron is a Baal Tefillah who uses all forms of spiritual and inspirational music, to enhance his Tefillot and inspire his congregation in prayer. Avron practices professionally as a dentist and is married with four children.
