It was filmed independently by Lester Simon in Long Island, NY in 1974. The other performers are his son and daughter, and the musical director and accompanist is his wife Madeline Simon. It was shot in 16mm and was reduced to VHS, then Hi8, then digitized, resulting in the quality loss. It is a companion piece to a performance of the Yiddish folk song The Nigundl (which I am trying to locate and will upload when I can find it). Thanks for your interest.
Those children look like geniuses.
