Music: Richard Rodgers Lyrics: Lorenz Hart Arranged by: Ray Ellis Conducted by: David Shire (from the Lp: SIMPLY STREISAND ) THE BARRY SISTERS (aka The Bagelman Sisters) (from Wikipedia) ¨Barry Sisters Born in the Bronx, New York, Clara and Minnie Bagelman were first known as the Bagelman Sisters. As Claire and Myrna Barry they were popular Yiddish jazz singers made popular in the 1940s-1960s on the New York Radio Show "Yiddish Melodies in Swing", where they would sing swing versions of Yiddish and popular American songs. During the height of their popularity, they even made appearances on the Ed Sullivan show, and were one of the few American acts to tour the former Soviet Union in 1959. Although Myrna Barry died in 1976, Claire Barry continues to sing and perform, and was recently featured in the NPR radio show, "Yiddish Melodies in Swing", an exhibit of the Yiddish Radio Project web site.¨ ¨¨ ¨The Barry Sisters began performing when they were children and were first called ¨The Begelman Sisters. As they grew older, thjey changed their stage name to The Barry Sisters. they began performing in the New York Catskills resort hotels, and became so popular that they became one of the biggest acts of the Yiddish theater circuit thrilling audiences from New York to Miami Beach. They toured and appeared with Mickey Katz (father of Joel Gray of Cabaret fame.) They became so popular that they appeared on the Ed Sullivan Television Show and were wacthed by millions of Americans. They later toured all of Europe and they were the first group of their kind to appear in the Soviet Union and were one of the most popular acts there as Russian Jews throughout the world wanted to hear their recordings. Many of these Yiddish songs were brought to America at the time of the huge wave of emigration of Eastern European Jews ¨ The Barry Sisters were very popular in the jewish resorts of the CATSKILLS and MIAMI BEACH. When Barbra Streisand began her career, she also worked at these resorts, such as her performances at the EDEN ROC in Miami Beach´s Collins Avenue, and at the Concord Hotel in Kiamesha Lake; New York Catskills. I wonder if Barbra met the Barry Sisters? FAR FROM THE HOME I LOVE ( Lyrics) what a melancholy choice this is, Wanting home, wanting him, How can I hope to make you understand Why I do what I do, Why I must travel to a distant land, Far from the home I love. Once I was happily content to be As I was, where I was, Close to the people who are close to me, Here in the home I love. Who could see that a man would come Who would change the shape of my dreams. Helpless now I stand with him, Watching older dreams grow dim. Oh, what a melancholy choice this is, Wanting home, wanting him, Closing my heart to ev'ry hope but his, Leaving the home I love Love, love.... Who could see that a man would come Who would change the shape of my dreams. So helpless now I stand with him, Watching older dreams grow dim. Oh, what a melancholy choice this is, Wanting home, wanting him, Closing my heart to ev'ry hope but his, Leaving the home I love Far from the home I love, Leaving the home I love Yet there with my love I'm home.
