[HANASHIR:8381] Re: Mi Chamocha

[Judah Cohen <jcohen...>]

While on the topic and for those who can make it:
4th year cantorial student Seth Warner will be performing his senior recital
on "The Music of Aminadav Aloni" in the Chapel at HUC's New York Campus
(Broadway and W. 4th St.) this coming Wednesday (March 7) at 11 AM.  It
promises to be a wonderful opportunity to hear his music on the East Coast.
The event is free and open to the public, so if you're interested, come
right on over.

Judah.
