Czernowitzers… Willy Goldmann sent along a YouTube link to this 1 hour 1994 performance of Yiddish music, I presume at the Musikverein in Cz.

The fellow who posted this to YouTube was the same fellow (loveboris100) who made the one hour film on Jewish Czernowitz, narrated in Ukrainian, that we brought to your attention some time ago.

So, who is the singer; the pianist; the storyteller? What is the occasion and was I correct about the location?

Help me out here — please make your comments below.

P.S. Also from Willy this  recording of the magnificent voice Josef Schmidt singing the Shma (1929). Background scenes of the synagogues he sang in.
