    Hersch continues to tour the world presenting his one-man shows or as guest conductor in comedy concerts with orchestra.

    Saw the YouTube videos and had to see the full thing. Surprisingly inexpensive shipping to the US and pretty quick too. Only downside was I got no tracking so just had to wait and hope it was on its way.
