Looking for klezmer band in the Ann Arbor, MI area

[Alfred . Raphelson <Alfred.Raphelson...>]

Two suggestions concerning Klezmer bands in Ann  Arbor:
1.  There is a man named Neil Alexander who has had a Klezmer band for
     a number of years here in town that plays at public events and I
     assume he and his group do special events.  He recently gave some
     lectures on klezmer at our local Jewish Community Center (2935
     Birch Hollow Dr., AA Mich 48108, 313-971-0990).  They should know
     how to get in touch with him.
2. I noticed just today that a local duo named "Shpil" will be playing
   several times at the big AA Art Fair that begins this Wed. They are
   supposed to feature Yiddish folk tunes, klezmer music as well as
   Israeli dance tunes.  I am  planning on going to hear them.  The
   JCC should be able to inform you how to get in touch with them, too.
   Good Luck.
