Review Songs in the Key of Yiddish February 13, 2004 Seth Rogovoy Several new releases feature top contemporary Yiddish vocalists, none better than Eleanor Reissa, who on "Songs in the Key of Yiddish" sings with the fluency of the native speaker she is and with the infectious, dramatic personality one would expect from a Tony Award-nominated singer-actress. Reissa's program includes theater favorites like "Sheyn vi di L'vone" — given a smoky-jazz, Peggy Lee-like arrangement — and folk songs like "Di Mizinke Oysgegebn," with contemporary, cabaret-style accompaniment featuring impeccable playing that never detracts from the vocalist, a master of the art of selling a song.   Songs In The Key of Yiddish Purchase the CD.         Eleanor recently starred in the title role of YENTL to tremendoius critical acclaim. read more                 The Rogovy Report Songs in the Key of Yiddish Eleanor Reissa, Self-released, compact disc.
