Pioneers in the field of Jewish children’s music, Gladys Gewirtz and her sister Roz Grossman created a unique series of recordings for Jewish children which are as fresh and entertaining today as they were 50 years ago. Years later, their brother, Shimon Gewirtz and his wife Ilana, continued the tradition by adding their own children’s voices to a series of Jewish Holiday LPs.
