COMPOSER FEATURE MAX JANOWSKI (1912—1991), composer of tonight’s setting of B’sefer Chayim, was a prodigious 20th-century composer whose liturgical compositions have been performed in concert halls, synagogues, churches, and colleges. Janowski was born in Berlin, immigrated to Japan in the early 1930s, and ultimately came to New York in 1937. He served in the U.S. Navy during World War II. Janowski was trained in piano, organ, composition, and conducting. He was the beloved music director, organist, and choir director at KAM Isaiah Israel Congregation in Chicago. His compositions number in the hundreds, including his beloved setting of Avinu Malkeinu for the High Holy Days.
