KlezKanada

[Meydele <Meydele...>]

I heartily second the postings recommending KlezKanada for young musicians.  I 
was virtually 
attacked by my 10 year old son at lunch the first day of KlezKanada after he 
spent the morning in 
the KlezKids program, indignantly demanding to know why we hadn't brought his 
trumpet with us from 
Los Angeles!  Well, we were in Montreal for a month and hadn't originally 
planned to go to 
KlezKanada, but I digress...
The program was outstanding.  My son made good friends in addition to 
developing a big enthusiasm 
for klezmer music.  There were a significant number of kids with instruments, 
some of them very 
good musicians.  Children of all abilities were encouraged to get involved and 
did.  The poster's 
children couldn't find a better place if Lisa and Sruli will be back to run the 
KlezKids program 
again.
