Happy Days of Youth
Czernowitz - In a garden.
Happy days of youth. Unusual "arrangement" and setting - Edy Wagner, head of the Balalaika orchestra, who died too young, top left, my husband's mother Alma Wagner in the middle, on the right her sister Ruzia Wagner with her famous pigtails, the rest are friends. Both Alma and Ruzia, were very gifted, played the guitar and the balalaika, accompanying themselves to a multitude of Yddish songs. Alma had a beautiful voice and had had some lessons with Joseph Schmidt when he was still a cantor. Alma had a great repertoire and sang and played often for her friends. She passed on her singing gift to our daughter Nadine.
