We're proud to be releasing two new music videos, both filmed at the stunning Lakewood Memorial Chapel in Minneapolis. In Droysn Iz Finster is a Yiddish love ballad, in which a lover finds themselves "alein nit farvos" (alone and bewildered) in the street, wondering where their beloved has gone. Arrangement by Olga Amelkina-Vera, video/audio by Gordon Byrd. Sub o Salcie Pletoasă is a song from the Romanian Orthodox tradition, which we learned from Irina Ivorciuc in Gura Humorului, Romania. "The holy mother prayed to the weeping willow tree, 'Can't you do something to ease my sorrow?'" Arrangement by Ayanna Woods, video/audio by Gordon Byrd.
