Yiddish Songs

Podcast Episode Summary


This episode of Backroads and Banjos veers a little away from the usual subject matter to present Yiddish songs from a new 3-disc box set called Cantors, Klezmorim, and Crooners 1905-1953. This collection was gathered from around 9,000 78rpm records and many of these tunes have never been widely issued. As a special treat, Art plays a selection he learned from his grandmother who was part of a Yiddish choir that regularly performed at Carnegie Hall.
