Re: how many hands has Joseph Moskowitz?



I think Stacy Phillip's klezmer fake book has a couple of tunes transcribed
(definitely Sadegurer Khosid, I don't remember Behuser being transcribed).
I don't know that they're very accurate in terms of a cimbalom score, but at
least the basic melodies are there.

I'm not a great reader, but are any copies of his written arrangements  
known to survive?  

thanks for the other info too.
