In memory of the victims of morning's massacre in Har Nof, Jerusalem: - Rabbi Moshe Twersky Z"L - Rabbi Kalman Levine Z"L - Aryeh Kupinsky Z"L - Avraham Shmuel Goldberg Z"L "And now, my sons, sing to the King with magnificent glory. And happy are his servants, who raise their voices in His praise".

A voice was heard in Ramah, lamentation, and bitter weeping; Rahel weeping for her children refused to be comforted for her children, because they were not.

ANTWERP: THE LAST SHTETL IN EUROPE A walk through Antwerp’s traditional Jewish quarter, just across from the central train station, is like a visit to Europe’s last shtetl. About 20,000 Jews live in the Belgian port city, most of them Hasidic or quite orthodox. Yiddish is often the language of choice. Long-bearded men with distinctive fur hats and black overcoats exchange greetings, while children ride bikes in front of jewelry shops, their long sidelocks swaying cheerfully.

Hello my dear friends!

Wishing you a Freilach Hanukkah!

חנוכה, אוי חנוכה

חנוכה, אוי חנוכה, אַ יום-טוב אַ שיינער, אַ לוסטיקער, אַ פריילעכער, ניטאָ נאָך אַזוינער. אַלע נאַכט אין דריידלעך שפילן מיר, זודיק הייסע לאַטקעס עסן מיר.

געשווינדער, צינדט קינדער די דינינקע ליכטעלעך אָן. זאָגט על הנסים, לויבט גאָט פאַר די נסים, און קומט גיכער טאַנצן אין קאָן.

יהודה האָט פאַרטריבן דעם שונא, דעם רוצח, און האָט אין בית המקדש געזונגען למנצח. די שטאָט ירושלים האָט ווידער אויפגעלעבט, און צו אַ נייעם לעבן האָט יעדערער געשטרעבט.

געשווינדער, צינדט קינדער די דינינקע ליכטעלעך אָן. זאָגט על הנסים, לויבט גאָט פאַר די נסים, און קומט גיכער טאַנצן אין קאָן.

Tonight, BBC1 will show a documentary on the Jews who made the Broadway musicals. Must be something in the air.

With these considerations in mind, let me offer a new video performance of what I think is the archetype Yiddish lullably, Almonds and Raisins. The soprano is Talia Dishon, in the vocal quartet Alla Breve. See what you think.
