He added some humour to it and modernise it. Anyway the lyrics "if I were a rich man I wouldn't have to work hard". Still so relevant today.😅🤣

Ive always like this rendition. Since he's adding he's own flair and antics into the song, it adds a layer of personality thats similar to the original but otherwise personal. What i mean is that in the original, the emotion you get is akin to "Sigh, I know its not everything, but wouldn't it be nice to be rich". In this one its "I know its not eveything, but come on! Wouldnt it be nice to be rich!?" Its that subtle difference that I like.

Sure. Great choices make great performances. These weren’t great choices though imo. The cadences and often cynical delivery we saw from Mostel, Bernardi, and Topol were unmistakably East European Jewish. This would be perfect if it was a performance of La Mancha or Sweeney Todd. As Tevye… I don’t know. Didn’t do it for me.

Sir Bryn’s career started after the famous ‘Battle of the Baritones’ during the 1989 ‘Cardiff Singer of the World’ competition. He was definitely the favourite, especially being Welsh, but it was a very strong final and he was pipped at the post by the great Russian, Mr Dimitri Hvorostovsky.

" Ако бях богат човек, Yubby dibby dibby dibby dibby dibby dibby dum. По цял ден бих наддал biddy bum. Ако бях богат човек. Не би трябвало да работя усилено. Yubby dibby dibby dibby dibby dibby dibby dum. Ако бях богати на оферти, Празен човек-дидле-дайлд-дайдъл човек. Бих построил голяма висока къща със стаи от десетката, Точно в средата на града. Фин калаен покрив с истински дървени подове отдолу. Ще има едно дълго стълбище, което просто се изкачва, И един още по-дълго слиза, И още едно водещо никъде, само за шоу. Бих напълнил двора си с пилета и пуйки, гъски и патици За да види градът и да го чуе. (Вмъкване) Squawking също толкова шумно, колкото те могат. (Крайна вмъкване) С всяка силна "дрънкалка" "swaqwk" "honk" "quack" Ще кацне като тръба на ухото, Сякаш да кажеш „Тук живее богат човек“. Ако бях богат човек, Yubby dibby dibby dibby dibby dibby dibby dum. По цял ден бих наддал biddy bum. Ако бях богат човек. Не би трябвало да работя усилено. Yubby dibby dibby dibby dibby dibby dibby dum. Ако бях богати на оферти, Празен човек-дидле-дайлд-дайдъл човек. Бих видял жена ми, моята Голде, приличаща на жена на богаташ С правилна двойна брадичка. Надзор на ястията за радост на сърцето й. Виждам я как се пуска в ефир и провира като паун. О, в какво щастливо настроение е тя. Крещи на слугите денем и нощем. Най-важните мъже в града щяха да пристигнат за мен! Биха ме помолили да ги посъветвам, Като Соломон Мъдрия. "Ако обичате, Реб Тевие ..." "Извинете ме, Реб Теви ..." Поставяне на проблеми, които биха пресекли очите на равин! Ях да-дее да да Ях да да да да И няма да има някаква разлика, ако отговоря правилно или грешно. Когато сте богат, те мислят, че наистина знаете! Ако бях богат, щях да имам времето, което ми липсва Да седи в синагогата и да се моли. И може би да има място до Източната стена. И ще обсъждам светите книги с учените мъже, по няколко часа всеки ден. Това би било най-сладкото от всички. Ако бях богат човек, Yubby dibby dibby dibby dibby dibby dibby dum. По цял ден бих наддал biddy bum. Ако бях богат човек. Не би трябвало да работя усилено. Yubby dibby dibby dibby dibby dibby dibby dum. Господ, който е създал лъва и агнето, Ти постанови, че трябва да бъда това, което съм. Би ли развалил някакъв огромен вечен план? Ако бях богат човек.

Audiences are notorious for ruining classical music performances. Just the other day, I was watching a recording of Tchaikovsky's Nocturne for Cello and Orchestra and literally, at the final chord, some jackass in the audience sneezed. The conductor's face was briefly pure agony. Gorgeous music, but people will remember how the end was ruined.
