It’s hard to watch this video and not be incredibly drawn to wanting to see the Yiddish Fiddler.

It's such an incredible show, and this moment in particular is touching; it's touching in English as well (fond memories of the 2016 revival!), but there's just an added layer of magic and meaning with it being performed in what would have been the characters' native tongue.
Seen it 13 times- so far. Thx for posting this clip.

One of my all time favorite theatrical experiences.
(But I have to mention: when I read the subject line, my brain saw SHE Loves Me in Yiddish.....and I was dead.)

Glidah! Ergebrakht mir glidah!"
One was announced in November of 2018 but I'm not sure it's been released.
"National Yiddish Theatre Folksbiene has announced a cast recording of its acclaimed Yiddish-language production of Fiddler on the Roof. Joel Grey directs the new staging, which is currently running at the Museum of Jewish Heritage through December 30, 2018, in advance of a transfer to off-Broadway's Stage 42 set to begin on February 11, 2019. A release date will be announced soon for the album, which will also feature bonus tracks cut from the 1964 Broadway production."

I PM'd you with some additional info I was able to find out."
Mind sending it along to me as well? I've tried to ask them on twitter but the only response I got was "keep checking back!""
According to someone who knows, the CD will drop on August 23 and the digital download will become available sometime before that.
