Episode 4 features a collaborative performance by two groups, Tsvey Brider and Baymele. In various combinations, the two ensembles perform original, stylistically diverse compositions of Yiddish poetry in addition to music of Jewish eastern Europe.

The Weitzman National Museum of American Jewish History (The Weitzman) in Los Angeles and the Lowell Milken Center for Music of American Jewish Experience at The UCLA Herb Alpert School of Music (Lowell Milken Center) partnered to create this cross-country offering. Secret Chord Concerts is a free on-demand video series featuring 15-25 minute performances from celebrated Jewish musicians representing a broad range of styles, heritages, and histories and recorded live in front of intimate audiences in Philadelphia and Los Angeles.
