A traditional and unforgettable Yiddish folksong. Added foot-stamping and hand-clapping gives this song a celebratory feel, with a real flavour of the shtetl. An English translation and pronunciation guide are included.
 
There's a terrific performance by the University Chorale at Temple University on YouTube here.
