RE: where to find klezmer titles (was RE: Family Portrait)

[Jewish Music Institute <jewishmusic...>]

Try www.klezmer.co.uk David Hayes in Leeds does a wonderful job of keeping up 
Klezmer
news and views in the UK. He and associates in the North of England have just 
held a
wonderful one day workshop in Manchester's Bridgewater Hall finishing up with 
Klezmer en
Buenos Aires concert.  You can also book for JMI KlezFest London Sun 1 - Wed 4 
July on
Dave's Website.  Updated information about the Faculty and Daily programme will 
be on
our Website www.jmi.org.uk and probably on his as well, early next week.

It was on my mind, but it's not online and only as current as the
last edition!

But I'll happily second the recommendation of your fine book as a reference.
(although the klezmershack does cover more albums and more countries. heh!)
