RE: Khevrisa

[Reyzl Kalifowicz-Waletzky <reyzl...>]

They certainly were wonderful.   And I can't understand why one or two 
people described the Ashkenaz experience as sitting in a museum observing 
artifacts.   All the music was new and unknown to me and the experience 
very fresh.   No one would say they were sitting in a museum after watching 
a Chekov or Strindberg play or listening to an English ballad from the same 
period.

This record is definitely a must buy for anyone who really cares about 
understanding Jewish music.

Another not paid advertisment and a Big Mazel tov, based on seeing them
live at Ashkenaz!

PS Make sure that CD will be flying... all the way to Scandinavia! (or at
least make sure to announce to list when it'll be out at all).
