Brikele is pretty amazing. As I recall, it is one woman, accompanied
only by piano, doing relatively traditional repertoire, but doing it
without the usual high-fat shmaltz that often accompanies these songs.

  Hi Ari,

She is wonderful. She is accompanied by piano, Tsimbl, and guitar.
If you would like to know if it is any good...ask Jenny (Eydl), she just 
ordered the last one!!!
I will DEFIANTLY be getting more ASAP!
This is one of those recordings that I feel I can recommend without 
reservation.
