Itzhak Perlman Plays «Oif’n Weyg steyt a Boim» [On the Path Stands a Tree]
The great violinist plays a heart-warmingly beautiful rendition of Itzik Manger’s classic tune. Manger was a true folk-poet whose works have rightly become classics of Jewish literature. Here, a young Jewish boy dreams of becoming a bird, so that he can experience true freedom in all its glory, and nest among the bare branches of a wayside tree.
