Re: Dancing

[r l reid <ro...>]

WRT Jewish dancing, in my attic ransackings I've come accross
a number of Fred Berk albums, who taught dance at Brooklyn
College.  One such is from 1973 on Tikva: "Chassidic Dances"
with Dance Instructions.

I've wondered as to the common opinion of people who know
this music and dance as to the place his work holds.  Top
notch documentation?  Naive?  Overly Israeli influenced?
At this point, an authentic style unto himself?   A good
observer who translates it well into a booklet?

Where does his work stand?
