Re: Identity in Klezmer

[Berlin Moshe <berlim...>]

I think that in Israel there was no revival to klezmer, because there
was no
need for it as the whole life was full with Jewish culture and
tradition. Besides, the definition of klezmer is quite different in
Israel then in other places.
As to the Germans, they have some filling to the Jewish culture, and
they
understand the Yiddish.
