If you are going to be touring around Israel and are looking for sites of
musical interest, how about paying a visit to The Felicja Blumental Music
Center & Library. We're on 26 Bialik St. in Tel-Aviv (right next to the
Bialik House and down the street from the Rubin Rubens House). We're open
Sun and Tues from 9 - 2 and Mon, Wed and Thurs from 12 - 7. I am at the
library Mon, Tues, Wed. Our phone no is 03-5250499 if you'd like to call
in advance. I'd be more than happy to give the group a tour of the
building.
