Re: Alberto Hemsi

[Sylvie Braitman <curlySylvie...>]

I was at Yuval in Paris last March and they have all the books of Hemsi's 
Coplas Sefardies.Here is their email Yuval (at) aiu(dot)org
They are a  kind of Jewish music research collective, under the direction of 
Adler.
They probably could direct you or send you copies,
Good luck,

Sylvie

  piano], 10 fascicles, Alexandria, Egypt-Aubervilliers, France, Edition

  Alberto Hemsi, born in Smyrna, Turkey (1897-1975), worked for more than five
