Mordecai Hirsch Bauman (March 12, 1912 in the Bronx – May 16, 2007 in Manhattan) was an American baritone.
[1] He attended James Monroe High School, then was granted a fellowship to the Juilliard Graduate School of Music during his freshman year at Columbia College in 1930, making him the first and only student to attend both institutions concurrently.
A few years later, he completed a documentary, "The Stations of Bach", in East Germany.
CUNY TV now owns the documentary and broadcasts it annually on Bach's birthday, March 21.
In 2006, Mordecai and Irma published their memoir, titled, From our Angle of Repose.
