Dudu Fisher

From his opening number, making his way through the audience to the Lyric Opera House stage, to his encores at the end, DuDu Fisher displayed his combination of powerful voice, showmanship, and audience connection that make his concerts more than just musical events. DuDu gave us a taste of the many kinds of music that have been a part of his career: traditional Hassidic songs without words, songs for Middle East peace, Jewish cantorial pieces, songs from his native Israel, and songs from his leading role in the Broadway production of "Les Miserables." A thoroughly enjoyable evening.

Great venue and great show. A wonderful evening on every level.

This is a great show. I'm looking forward to next years production.

His voice and charisma made for a magical evening. The blend of Jewish music and songs related to Israel coupled with his broadway music made it very special. His voice is magical !

Dudu Fisher has an amazing voice and the show was fantastic!

We had seen Dudu Fisher when he was on PBS during pledge week and were blown away by his beautiful voice. When we heard he was coming to the Lyric, we were ecstatic. Last night was an experience - his voice was clear as a bell, his backup band was sensational and as we were leaving the theater we heard nothing but rave reviews. We hope he'll come here again for more concerts in the future - would run, not walk, to see him. For each song he showed slides which added to the feel and meaning of what he was singing about.

Great mix of old and new, secular and jewish. We had a fantastic time and his voice is absolutely amazing.

His voice is wonderful. The range of songs was quite varied and entertaining. Lots of energy. The band was very talented also. The biggest negatives to me were the projected images (could have been a lot better- didn't seem very professional and didn't change very often) and the stage lighting, again not very professional and some of the light patterns on the performers and stage were distracting rather than enhancing.

I have seen him 7 years in a row and he is fabulous

The concert was very enjoyable with many familiar tunes, but WHY does the sound have to be at an ear drum deafening decibel level. Look around the audience. Perhaps some had hearing aids. Fisher didn't even need a mike with the power of his voice. What the hell is wrong with these sound people. I have the answer. The sound guy is DEAF from all the concerts he has worked. GET A NEW SOUND GUY!!!.

I have been aware of Dudu Fisher, of course, as a major voice in the Jewish world. However, not being a part of more traditional communities, I never had the opportunity to hear him in person. I guess I expected that he would have a good and powerful voice. What blew me away, though, was the breadth of the material that he included in his show. From traditional Jewish tunes and Yom Kippur melodies to Elvis and Sinatra, he sang effortlessly and was hugely entertaining. His stories were interesting, the Broadway music was moving, and the accompanying band was terrific. I had wanted to participate in this event and I wound up enjoying every minute!

Show was in a word "FABULOUS". Dudu Fisher is extremely versatile doing everything from Kol Nidre to Elvis Presley to Les Miz. The only downside was that the BergenPAC theater didn't turn on the air conditioning earlier in the day; the theater did cool off by the time the show started.

WHAT A PERFORMANCE. HE WAS AMAZING AND EVERYTHING I EXPECTED.

From the piano player to Dudu's wife controlling the film, everything was well done!! Dudu was outstanding!! I took my parents to see him for my father's 90th birthday!!

Excellent performance - delightful! Highly recommended

Dudu fisher is an amazing, energetic, spiritual performer. His inspiring stories, his warmth and energy are captivating. Can't wait to see him again! His pianist is also amazing.

The concert was excellent and his voice is so magnificent. I was truly blessed that I was there at the concert and experiencing his stories and his singing. I purchased 2 CDs and can't stop listening. Thank you for bringing him here for us to enjoy. I hope he will be back again next year and I will again attend his concert.

4th time seeing Dudu gets better everytime Performed over 90 minutes with no break Great venue My 90 year old mother say with a smile on her face throughout the concert & sang along

Fantastic evening. ..I could have listened to this wonderful singer/performer for the entire night .

Dudu Fisher's performance was fabulous. I have seen him many times, and each time I enjoy him more. He never fails to please.

The evening was very enjoyable. We love this artist and his amazing voice. His respect for Jewish music and tradition is very heartwarming. Honoring his friend Tony Orlando and then being entertained by him added to the enjoyment of the evening

Has a magnificent voice, but show was "kitch". Sang way too much in Yiddish and the few songs, he managed in Hebrew at the end...were from the year 1:) Could see that he adjusted his music to the audience and this was Miami Beach and an older crowd who enjoyed him tremendously,

This was the 4th time I saw Du Du. This was his best. He added video behind him which enhanced the overall experience and added new songs.

He connected with the audience. He is a performer not just a singer. At times, he was yelling not singing.

Dudu puts on a fantastic show. His pace is perfect in his interaction with the audience and his voice is golden. The time just flies by. A must see.

We never miss Dudu when he plays town. This year he suprised us witht a somewhat differernt show. He was warm and wonderful as usual. It's feel good time when Dudu is on stage.

Great voice, heartwarming, most entertaining, program was very well done. Was not bored for one moment! Could have watched his performance for many more hours. Just loved it!!

Wonderful venue with easy access and great location. Dudu Fisher brought a little bit of Jerusalem, Broadway with a Twist of Rock n Roll. An unusual combination of entertainent from the past and present. A wonderful form of entertainment for all ages, races and religion. Can't wait to see him again in the near future.

I was disappointed in the show he sang too many songs in Yiddish. We would have loved to hear him sing his show tunes in English, after all he was playing to an English speaking audience. He has a beautiful Cantorial voice and for that reason I would recommend his show but warn the audience that he will be singing in Yiddish. After talking to other people that have seen him perform he does the same show all the time. In order for me to go to see him again he would have to change some of his songs and up date his act.

Intimate setting belt like he was in my living room Dudu ( amd his pianist) performed for almost 2 hours without even taking a sip of water My 89 year old mom sat with a beautiful smile on her face during his performance- the only time she didn't was when she wa singin along. Even my husband left singing "I Dreamed a Dream" & said he would see him again This was my third time seeing Dudu

An absolutely fabulous evening, I see him every year for the last five years.What a voice.

Performance was excellent, but theater sound system less than perfect . Also, finding parking at this venue is always a problem.

My sister and I thoroughly enjoyed the evening. We liked both the Hebrew and English tunes he sang. His personality shines through and it appears as if he enjoys singing as much as we enjoy listening. One caveat: the volume was deafening. Even the piano was too loud. Our husbands did NOT enjoy the evening. Being unfamiliar with Dudu Fisher, all they walked away remembering was how loud everything was. In reality, it was too loud and, at times, even painful. If that were adjusted, I would give the evening a five star rating.

Dudu Fisher was everything we expected plus a lot more. His collection of songs was outstanding as was his voice. He was personable, interesting, and entertaining with his discussions between numbers. He provided two hours of excellent entertainment and my group and I had an evening we will not forget. We had seen him on TV but a live performance should not be missed.

Dudu Fisher was wonderful. What a range when he sings. You feel like he is singing just for you. AMAZING!

He was absolutely fantastic. We would definitely see him again. He has an amazing voice and stage presence.

I had seen Dudu Fisher's concert in Beit Shean on PBS. I thought this would be something like that. I thought it would be Hebrew songs and I was hoping it would be for my demographic. However, it was mainly Broadway show tunes, a couple Hebrew songs, and a yiddish song and 1-2 prayers. . When he talked about the beach at Tel Aviv and people coming to Israel by boat when it was founded, I was ready for Eli, Eli, but it did not materialize. Dudu is a wonderful storyteller and is afffable. However, I bought the best tickets for a concert of Hebrew songs with a little English. He did play to the demographic of people in their 80s, which I was not in. One third of my itunes songs are his since he enunciates the words clearly which I like so if I forget a word when I am singing, I know what it is. This may be from his singing on Broadway where the words are part of the story or why he was chosen for Les Miz on Broadway. I am in my 50s and I and my friend brought down the average age by a lot. Most people were in their 80s although some were accompanied by their children in their 60s. If my daughter had been home from college, I would have brought her and she would have really brought the average age down by alot. There were no young people at all. I think 50 was the youngest person there and that is being generous. . I bought 3 good tickets but could not sell my extra one, which was good since the seats were narrow. The Keswick really needs refurbishing. The seats are narrow, not comfortable, and the paint is worn off about 25% of the places. It was difficult leaving because of all the seasoned citizens going out. I am glad to support Dudu with my full priced tickets and I would go again if it were convenient but would go by myself so I didn't have to apologize for the demographic. I would get the one good seat by itself up front or get a discounted ticket. When I saw his concert on PBS, I thought that one thing I really wanted to do was go to a concert of Israeli songs in Hebrew and excitedly bought the tickets and was very much looking forward to that. I thought that since this was something I really would like, I would take 2 people and sit up front. Oh, well. It was fine and I might go again but it did not buoy my spirits, but was a c'est la vie moment. The concert was good for what it was but it was not what I expected.

Good entertainer. Very enjoyable. Highly recomended.
