[3] Fisher began cantorial studies at age 22, after his discharge from the army following three years of service that included the Yom Kippur War.

[4] After being mesmerised by the London performance of the 1980s hit musical, Fisher, despite having no prior acting experience, requested the part in a Hebrew production of Les Misérables.

Among Fisher's other performances is his one-man Off-Broadway show, Never on Friday, an anecdotal work exploring the complications of his experience on Broadway as an observant Jew.

[9] In addition to his stage and synagogue performance, Fisher has released over 25 albums, including songs in Hebrew, Yiddish, and English, many classics and cantorial pieces, as well as music for children.

He also joined David D'Or, Eran Zur, and Meir Banai in the song "Lisa" on the album Radio Blah-Blah (1994) by the Israeli band The Friends of Natasha.

[10] In 2009, Fisher recorded the song "Saleinu" for the organization Pioneers For A Cure, with the proceeds benefiting Ezer Mizion.
