Wie Nemt Men A Bissale Mazel
Lyrics - Jewish Folk Music - Benzion Witler(1907–1961)
Singer Benzion Witler
The name of this song tells everything. Wie Nemt Men A Bissale Mazel-Where to get a little luck where to get a little fortune.
Let the dreidal turn around and bring this luck back. Composer and singer, Mr. Witler was born in Poland in Shtetle Belz. His Hasidic family was very religious and did not want Benzion to perform in the theatre. At the age of 12, he secretly signed up with "Freie Yiddish Folkbeine in Vienna. For a little while, he was a journalist, but then he returned back to theatre. He was a very popular singer, composer and songwriter. He performed in Eastern Europe, England and France. In 1940, he came to the USA and in an instant, he won the hearts of the Jewish population.
Yiddish song Artist - Leonid Pasternak.
