This recital features songs for voice, violin, and piano, from the newly released album, Freylekh: A “joyful” rediscovery of De Cormier’s Yiddish folksongs. These songs are selections from the recently published The Yiddish Folksong Project Anthology: The arrangements of Robert De Cormier, bringing to light Robert De Cormier’s folksong arrangements, which had previously been kept in a storage closet for over 40 years. Not only is this anthology the first-ever publication of De Cormier’s arrangements of Yiddish folksongs, but it is also the first-ever large body of Yiddish folksong repertoire that is arranged in the classical style for performance on the concert or recital stage.
