Goodbye Odessa - Yiddish Song

Vocal: Olga Avigail Mieleszczuk, violin: Daniel Hoffman, clarinet: Ittai Binnun, accordion: Ofer Malchin, contrabass: Yehonatan Levi
record and sound: Ittai Binnun / Lars Sergel, mastering: Marek Walaszek
Oh Odessa, goodbye Odessa,
I will miss you so much,
I will never forget you,
Farewell my friends,
Let's shout together:
Odessa Mama, I love you so much!
This Yiddish-Ukrainian song "Proshchai Odessa" was sung by Pesakh Burstein. I've combined it with a Ukrayinish Kek-Vok (Ukrainian Cakewalk) collected by Yale Strom.

[@leafranken935]

My life began in Odessa, but I did not see her, my mother Nadia was prégnant of me, we were in a camp of refugees in 1945 and she left Odessa with my father Joseph just before my birth, so that my little ears have heard the street music of Odessa. So I never have seen Odessa but I heard her! I was born in West Europe, became doctor, and with my father, we played music at home. . My son is a musician too. I love the movie "Cuirassé Potemkine" of Sergueï Eisenstein. I am now a grandma musician and I play Klezmer and Russian music. 🎶🎶🎶💝

My heart goes out to you and everyone in Ukraine. I am a descendant of Ukrainian Jews from Odessa in America. My relatives came in the late 1800s-early 1900s. My father brought over family members in the 1980s during the Gorbachev thaw. I would love to explore my heritage and see where I came from when god willing the war is over and Ukraine is victorious.

We red this book together, we did that often, buy the same books, or one of us got it in the library and if the book was good, we urged the other to read it. So we did read a book written by a Dutch writer, Albert Mol. He was not Jewish, but grew up in the red light district in Amsterdam, nearby the Jewish neighbourhood so he knew a lot of Jewish families and had Jewish friends. Anyway, the book was called Mengele broek en Pintje Billen, what means as much as: "A lot of trouser and a little bit of bum" sorry, can't translate it better. Have a nice life, and thanks for reminding me of good memories.

Early 1800's for me, they came at a time when the army here accepted anyone, notably jews and "turks" (meaning anyone from the south or east of Greece), along with the more traditional German, Flemish, Walloon and native soldiery. After a time in uniform, they opened a grocer that stayed in the family until my grandfather died. None of my family speaks yiddish today or is particularly jewish, its a bit sad.

I started to learn Yiddish from the lady next door to my old house. The lessons stopped for some strange reason. I never found out why. But I think I know. Anyway, she was nice to try and do that for me, way back then.

The music is great and the video content priceless. Beautifully done - Olga is a treasure of scholarship and talent not to mention beauty.

It's funny I found this, my great grandfather was a jew from odessa who moved to the US, I've never heard this song before, but I feel like I've always known it. awesome song. It's also cool I have a connection to a lot of the other people here in the comments.

Same, except my mother was a jew from odessa who moved to Israel, and my great grandfather from her side of the family fought in WW2 for the Soviets. I'm an half Ukrainian and half Egyptian jew.

To everyone who created this post. Thank you for the work it took you to record the music and to connect it with the visual content. You have helped to ensure that history will NEVER FORGET the beautiful spirit of a people so viciously-violated by selfish, uncivilized, sadistic, war criminals.

I note that some bits of the movie are excerpted from Eisenstein’s “Potemkin,” which also takes place in Odessa. In fact the excerpts are from the Odessa Steps sequence.

@@Anna_M_numbers Здраствуйте, пжта обратите внимание как комментатор Soc Ivancovsky (naverhu) пишет слово 'погром' с буквой р после п. (pRogrom).. Я ему сообщила что он неправильно написал, но знаю из моего опыта - многие злились когда я указывала им на это ошибку. Может быть кто-то из русскоговорящих меня поддержит ? Я вообще-то не люблю исправлять ошибки комментаторов, но это слово теряет весь смысл, когда пишут пРогром.
