Before the beloved musical Fiddler on the Roof, there was Sholem Aleichem and his beloved character of 'Tevye the Milkman.' Before the popular songs "Tradition," "If I Were a Rich Man," "Matchmaker," and more, there was music of the old world-- a music that imitated talking, laughing, weeping, and singing; where musicians didn't just make music, they spoke in song through Klezmer.
In Florence, Italy, one of the oldest artistic centers in the world, a group of musicians have been virtuosos in Florence's world famous Maggio Musicale symphony by day, the Klezmerata Fiorentina by night. With Hershey Felder as their storyteller, and their ancient European roots, Felder executes a performance by taking on the role of Aleichem himself - giving us the true story of what happened before Fiddler. Filmed on location where events actually took place, this World Premiere features stories and characters sure to touch the souls of audience members everywhere.
