Baruch Chait

He is the son of Rabbi Moshe Chait, the former Rosh Yeshiva of Yeshivath Chafetz Chaim of Jerusalem, and is a student of Rabbi Henoch Leibowitz, former Rosh Yeshiva of Yeshiva Chofetz Chaim of Forest Hills, New York.

Since the late 1960s, Chait has composed hundreds of Jewish religious songs that still have wide popularity and appeal. Included in this list is his original composition, "Kol Ha'Olam Kulo". He founded several bands including The Rabbis' Sons and Kol Salonika and has published dozens of records.[2] On February 27, 2022, Chait was inducted with the inaugural class of the Jewish Music Hall of Fame.

Chait is the founder of Maarava Machon Rubin, a yeshiva high school that combines religious and secular studies at a level allowing completion of matriculation exams. The school caters to the Haredi sector but due to its inclusion of secular studies it draws many students from American backgrounds.

Chait has written a number of children's educational books on Jewish topics, together with illustrators Gadi Pollack and Yoni Gerstein.[1] Many of his books go under the name of the HaLamdan HaKattan (small scholar) series.
