Sidi L'vovna Tal' (Russian: Сиди Львовна Таль) or Sidy Thal[1] (born Yiddish: Sorele Birkental (Сореле Биркенталь) on 8 September 1912 – died 17 August 1983) was a prominent Jewish singer and actress in the Yiddish language, born in Czernowitz, Austria-Hungary (now Chernivtsi, Ukraine).

She and her husband, Pinkus Falik (producer of Gery Scott), encouraged and helped the start of the career of the Ukrainian pop singer Sofia Rotaru.

Throughout her career at the Philharmonic, Sidi Tal and her group toured all over the country and traveled to Hungary and Romania.

The music to some of the songs she sang was written by Chernivtsi composers Leibu Levin and Leonid Zatulovskiy.
