article on Klezmer and Mark Slobin by George Robinson

[Seth Rogovoy <rogovoy...>]

There's a really nicely done article about/interview with
klezmer author/ethnomusicologist Mark Slobin by
our own George Robinson in this week's Jewish Week,
in which Slobin talks about Beregovski and the new
and re-released publications that have been a recent topic
on this list, as well as offering his well-considered thoughts
on the klezmer revival in general.

Soul"
“The music of my childhood memories came flooding back through the decades
as I read. Maybe, as Seth Rogovoy suggests, it’s time for our music to
awaken once more to an entirely new generation. Incredibly detailed and
comprehensive, this book is a lot more than Essential!” -- folk music legend
Arlo Guthrie
