[HANASHIR:11371] Yiddish Radio Project

I received this information from the Public Radio MusicSource and thought 
some of you might be interested:

**YIDDISH RADIO PROJECT

Welcome to the Yiddish Radio universe: 
a mixture of swing, klezmer, Jewish 
songs, and wonderfully campy commercials. 
The soundtrack companion CD from the 10- 
part NPR radio series celebrating the 
golden age of Yiddish radio in America, 
from the '30's through '50's, is taken 
from rediscovered archival recordings. 
Liner notes include an essay by 
ethnomusicologist and series co-producer, 
Henry Sapoznik.   
Retail Price: $17.98; On Sale: $12.99

Best to all,
Fran Uditsky Moss
