As part of my heritage and my musical interests, I perform in numerous languages. These include: Russian, Spanish, Italian, Hebrew, Yiddish, Swahili, German, Dutch, Danish, French, and Japanese.
An international holiday show includes all of those languages and highlights the different cultural celebrations that take place on our around December.
