Carlebach

[Francesco Spagnolo <yuval...>]

Chevre,

I'm currently planning a radio show on Sh. Carlebach (for the Radio 
Popolare, Milano, three year old show, now at its fifth edition).

I am not really a fan of Carlebach. Instead, I'm interested in 
exploring the phenomenon: appearently, some people in Italy 
(expecially non-Jewish Jewish culture lovers) like his music a lot. I 
would like to understand why...

After a short research in the Net, all I came up with were a bunch of 
upsetting overly right-wing ultra-orthodox (I've nothing against 
Orthodoxy, but I'm not really a fan of its most common political 
turns, as you may imagine) sites. With very little general 
information (biography, reviews, etc.).

Is there any objective information about Carlebach around?

Thanks for your help,
Francesco
