Chazan Jonny Turgel

​Over the past 20 years, Jonny has studied under various professors of voice from internationally recognised schools, following the traditional Bel Canto technique. More recently Jonny has begun to explore other methods used in Musical Theatre and more contemporary styles to add variety to his performance and repertoire.


His training in nussach and chazanut has taken a similar route, studying under several accomplished chazanim both in London and Israel in order to create his own unique blend of chazanut to shape a style which appeals to the masses of our generation.
