First Annual Dave Tarras Yahrzeit Concert

[Berlin Moshe <berlim...>]

    It seems that when Dave Tarras died it was according to the Jewish
calendar the 7th of Adar. (Yahrtsaite of Moishe Rabeinu) Since then we play
in Meron during the Hilula at the Rashbi tomb (tomorrow night), some pieces
from Tarras' repertoire. Once he said that he was very happy that his music
is played in Eretz Israel.
