Among the finest Kol Nidro arraiiKements for solo, instruments are those by Max Bruch for cello and violin, performed by Pablo Casals, Joseph.Schuster and other famous artists, The Roger Wagner Chorale offers a Kol Nldre of great warmth and power, as does the chorus ond orchestra of Benedict Sllbermari.
