[HANASHIR:4099] Re: Universal Jewish Music License

[Meris Ruzow <meris...>]

In case you're interested in an opinion from a jewish day/supplemental
school music teacher, choral director of both adults and kids, and youth
group music program person, for both reform and conservative
schools/synagogues, I can tell you that I think anyone involved in the
"receiving" end of "your" music would feel honored to finally be able to pay
some respect to the composers and their wonderful material.   AFter all, we
want this stuff to keep coming!   So put your heads together (and enjoy the
cream cheese...) and toss it around and see what happens.   Why shouldn't
you get the same deal as other professionals?
