oops, please disregard the last email.... oy vey, I knew it would happen to
me one of these days.... Just to fill in, was completing an email to a
friend about the concert today at the Eldridge St. Synagogue. Hersh
Rikelman, is on the program together with Josh Waletzky and Toyve Birnbaum.
I've had the good fortune of being introduced to Hersh, living a few blocks
away from clarinetist German Goldenshteyn in Sheepshead Bay Brooklyn. He's
an amazing accordionist who plays in a style very affected by American
popular styles. His harmonies are full of extended chords, augmented
inversions, 9ths and the like. And he sings with a lot of neshumeh. With
Josh on the program as well, and Toyve Birnbaum, a genuine badkhn from
Poland... need I say more?
Perhaps this misfired email was afterall a good opoportunity to remind and
once again (as if it needs it) plug the concert today at 2pm at the Eldridge
St. Synagogue, 2pm! Also Jeff Warschauer is doing a musical walking tour of
the area and that begins at that same location at 11am!
A double-header of a day on the lower east side for all those who can make
it!
