Years ago I did an interview with Isachar Fater in Poland. His address in
Israel is:

12 Brodetzky Str.
69051 Ramat-Aviv Israel
Tel 412-944

he belongs ideologically to those who believe that Jewish folk music should
be "raised to the level of western art music". I enjoyed his verve even when
I didn't agree with his ideas, and he is quite knowledgable about Beregovski
as well. Josh Horowitz
