Wecker, Arnold.

Arnold Wecker may have served as a cantor and choir conductor in the town of Botoșani, Romania, ca. 1891-1908. The bulk of his activities appear to gravitate around the Bucharest Choir Temple, what the Encyclopedia Judaica refers to as "the center of progressive Jewry" in Romania. He was choir conductor and most likely composer and arranger for that congregation, ca. 1909-ca. 1934. That means he would have served during the tenure of Rabbi Moritz Beck (1845-1923), a highly respected leader of Romanian Jewry. He also worked during this time with the organist, J. Paschill (18--?).
