  • We saw Herschel Bernardi in Fiddler on the Roof at the Fox Theater in Atlanta in the mid 80s. He was the best!

  • My mom knew Bernardi. This is a great version. :)

  • wow! what a great performance!  I enjoy how all of the different "Tevye's" bring something so unique to their performances!

  • I liked Herschel Bernardi but he couldn't touch Zero Mostel with a million foot pole as Tevye.

  • This dudes good!

  • In my opinion -- whatever that is worth -- a performance which is almost as over the top as Zero Mostel's -- and just as powerful and effective in a live theater. Even the people in the last row would be drawn in. If you ever want an example of how to perform this number, this is among the best ever.

  • I've always liked HB and had read about his Tevye, but had never seen any footage of his performance. Wonderful:) --

  • @bikefixer agreed

  • dude i have the record i lisen to it everother day to life is awsome:D

  • I feel like at some points Bernardi seems a little drunk

  • Herschel Bernardi was wonderful

  • Absolutely. Zero Mostel hammed it up, while Bernardi's was the most sympathetic portrayal.

  • Herschel Bernardi, the best Tevye... ever!
