[HANASHIR:10361] Re: accents/pronounciation

Thankyou Cantor Contzius for that great argument in favor of adhering to 
proper Hebrew accents.  Maybe this will encourage our up and coming Jewish 
composers to keep Hebrew accents in mind when composing new music for our 
Hebrew Schools and congregations.  Unfortunately, old habits die hard and 
some of our older songs can not be changed without complaints from 
congregants.  Hopefully in the future Hebrew will take precedence.

Happy Turkey Day to everyone,
Donna Gordon
