yikhes

[Joel Rubin/Rita Ottens <simontov...>]

To clarify the confusion:

"Yikhes. Early Klezmer Recordings 1911-1939..." is the identical recording
to Yikhes. "Fruehe Klezmer-Aufnahmen von 1907-1939...".

The original German-language production was the first CD of klezmer
reissues, released in 1991 and awarded the German Record Critics' Prize,
among others. At first planned as a bilingual edition, the original 40 page
text was too long to print in two languages.

The 1995 bilingual edition is a corrected and shortened version of the
original text. The 1907 date was found to be erroneous. Since the 1995
release, it has come to light that the "newest" recording on the anthology,
by the State Ensemble of Jewish Folk Musicians, was made in 1937, so if a
third edition should come about....
