New Mini-doc on YouTube
Check out the latest mini-documentary about the Ger Mandolin Orchestra, culled from the group's outstanding performance on November 7, 2013 at Toronto Centre for the Arts. A capacity audience of over one thousand people packed the acoustically-perfect Weston Recital Hall for this amazing performance, presented by the Ashkenaz Foundation as part of Holocaust Education Week. The video was directed by Toronto filmmaker David Hoffert.
