Moshy Kraus is a prominent figure in the world of Jewish and Chassidic music, best known as a talented vocalist, arranger, and producer. He co-created and produced the popular Yiddish Nachas children’s choir albums with composer Yossi Green starting in 2014, which have become beloved in Jewish homes for their beautiful angelic voices and timeless niggunim (melodies). Over the years, the Yiddish Nachas series has grown to include multiple albums, live performances, and widespread acclaim, helping to popularize Yiddish-themed spiritual music among younger generations. Kraus is also known for producing the “Shabbos Nachas” series, celebrated for capturing the warm, nostalgic feel of Friday night Shabbat songs sung by chassidish children’s choirs, which are streamed and enjoyed by many every Shabbos eve.

Beyond Yiddish Nachas, Moshy Kraus has worked on projects related to preserving and revitalizing traditional niggunim, including the musical settings of beloved Rebbe melodies, bringing a contemporary sound while respecting the originals. His collaborations often highlight heartfelt Jewish themes and spiritual inspiration, and he has developed a reputation as a trendsetter in heimishe (homey, traditional) Jewish music circles. His work reflects a deep dedication to producing meaningful music that connects heritage with modern audiences, enriching Jewish cultural and spiritual life.
