          Naftali Hertz Herstik was born in Salgótarján in Hungary in the years following the end of World War Two and the Holocaust, and emigrated with his family to the recently established state of Israel in 1950.  He was descended from a line of cantors and rabbis, the Hungarian Jewish Community from generations past being remarkably well-endowed with cantorial and musical talent.

          Naftali learnt the basics of the cantor’s art from his father Moshe Menachem Herstik, and in Israel as a young man studied chazzanut and synagogue music with major figures such as Leib Glantz and Shlomo Ravitz.
