When he sang or prayed, his voice came straight out of the heart.
The sweetness of his rendering and the way he used to bring out the prayers from deep in his guts, made him the beloved Chazan of the masses.
Myself when I was still a teenager, I used to like to listen to Josseleh, and other great Chazonim, but when I first heard Jehoshua Wieder singing in the Radio, it was this that made me want to become a Chazan myself.
Jehoshua Wieder's voice was soft and smooth like velvet
His compositions were all well build with a soft beginning and then going stronger and stronger and finally finishing of in apotheosis.
He was a great Baal Tefiloh (Master of Prayers).
