The Ehpes has gone Musical !
After having started from Genealogy the site became:
Historical
Archeologic
Mapologic
Geographic
Gastronomic
Literary
Linguistic
Jubilistic
Now the focus is on Music. Sounds and Lyrics. Yiddish .Old time.
Melancoly.
This I love. Most of all I like Moishe Oysher. As he is from our
neighborhood
his Yiddish is my Yiddish. Nobody could sing Yiddish with such a flair
.
Nobody could reproduce the Moldavic - Gipsy tunes tunes better than
him.
There were better, more famous tenors in Yiddish ( Jan Peerce and
others)
but nothing can reproduce the emotion i felt when I first heard
Oysher singing
in his coarse wonderful voice the Chanuka Song (Dreidelsong) or Chad
gadya.
No wonder : he comes from our region ( Hotyn) and this is the
homeland
of the Chassidic music with its Romanian -Gipsy origin.
Has somebody got Oysher recordings ?
Let us share.
