Re: Main Interest

[alfesta <alfesta...>]

Hi There,

Thanks to you I have, over the past few weeks received numerous e:mail messages 
concerning various Jewish musical involvements.

My main interest however is confined to Jewish involvement in Jazz and Popular 
Music from the year dot (around 1850) to the 1960's.
This included song writers/composers, musicians, record producers, Band 
Leaders, Singers and such like.

Could you please point me in the right direction

Best Regards

Alf Keiles

  Subject: Rossini, Verdi and the Jews



  I'm sure I speak for others besides myself when I say that I'd be delighted 
to read whatever Francesco Spagnolo would care to tell us about the 
relationship among Rossini, Verdi and the Jews.  The attitudes of the famous 
composers towards Jews is a subject of curiosity to me, and I'm sure to many 
others, too. 

  Pesach Sameach to all,
