This review is from: Itzhak Perlman: In the Fiddler's House (DVD)

Mr. Perelman is a gifted violinist and his playing is simply marvellous. Watching and listening to this DVD will be a touching,moving experience for all people,in particular those who are interested in yiddish folk music, recent jewish history ,and klezmer music,all of which are part of the jewish culture that are kept here in a wonderful way for future generations.

This review is from: Itzhak Perlman: In the Fiddler's House (DVD)

I had the privilege to work on this production as post-production supervisor. The whole project was an unforgettable experience. (I was also able to participate in the portions of the program that were taped in New York.) The photography is beautiful, particularly in Krakow and environs, and I can tell you that the care and sensitivity that went into the writing and editing is very evident in the final result. And by this I include the invaluable contributions of Mr. Perlman to the whole project as well. It was a subject dear to his heart and to many other project participants (other musicians, etc.) and this came through in the overall tone of the film.

This review is from: Itzhak Perlman: In the Fiddler's House (DVD)

Itzhak Perlman takes the viewer on a fascinating tour through the origins and rebirth of klezmer music. Featuring Fyvushe Finkel, Red Buttons, The Klezmatics, Klezmer Conservatory Band, Brave Old World, Andy Statman Orchestra and more. Joyous and celebratory. A must for fans and lovers of klezmer music.
