<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Halacha mandates certain things, like
not talking between various points in tefila. But much of the
style of any given shul isn't governed by halacha. Some places say
psukei d'tzimra quietly, in unison (more or less). Other places
people say them out loud at their own pace. So yes, a Yekke shul
is one in which there is more order than a yeshivish place or a
chassidic shul. However all are good!<br>
