Re: Modern Jewish Composition

[Fred Jacobowitz <fredj...>]

Lee,
        One source is the catalogues of the IMI and IMP, the two large 
Israeli music publishers. Thought they are difficult to get hold of, IMI 
is carried by Presser and IMP by G. Schirmer via its Associated Music 
Publishers subsidiary. (or is it IMP from Presser and IMI from Schirmer? 
Either way, you can contact them and they'll tell you). There are many 
publications devoted to modern music. If you look through them for Jewish 
names, that's another way to do it. I think I remember once seeing a 
publication called "Who's Who in Jewish Music" but I'm not sure. Any good 
music library ought to help you. Live near any conservatories of music?
