New Jazz Album of Yiddish Songs Features Local Cantor, Manhattan Transfer Singer Janis Siegel

Photo: www.mazelthealbum.com A Yiddish jazz album featuring the nine time Grammy-award winning singer Janis Siegel from The Manhattan Transfer, a Grammy-nominated pianist, John Di Martino, and Cantor Daniel Kramer from a Port Jefferson Station synagogue in his recording debut?     This unlikely trio came together when Di Martino (ironically the only non-Jew from the group) became fascinated with Yiddish songs, which happened, according to a press release, after he heard blues singer Alberta Hunter perform “I Love You Much Too Much” in Yiddish (Ich Hob Dich Tzufil Lieb). An unusual choice for a singer who was born in Memphis in 1895 and came to fame in the early 20th century during the jazz era.
