The Icek and Sosza Ita Zalc Collection

Yiddish music classics

This collection is mainly composed of Yiddish music with artists such as the Barry Sisters or Benzion Witler, but it also includes some notable productions by major Israeli bands such as the Parvarim or the Yemenite Trio, among others.
It is accompanied by a hint of liturgical music and traditional festive songs, such as Moishe Oysher ’s Chanukah Party albums as well as Masterpieces of the Synagogue by the great cantor Josef Rosenblatt.
