To music (at) sterlingmp(dot)org ,    I have been getting your e-mails and many 
others from people you write to.  I have nothing to do with your organization 
and I don't know how you got my e-mail address  if there is a way for you to 
not send me any more of your mail and the  others as well I would appreciate it 
.  If I become interested in the Jewish music I will certainly cantact you.  
Thank you  and have a good Shabbat.
