Re: NYC:Labor Day Weekend Annual SHORASHIM-Roots of Israeli Folk Dance (fwd)

[H. Kaufman <hkaufman...>]

Sorry, I did not include the rest of the list in my response to Lori.

It is the band of Rikuday Dor Rishon (RDR) that plays for special
occasions at our weekly RDR Sunday folk dance sessions in NYC as well as
during our annual Shorashim weekend. It is comprised of musicians who also
are Israeli folk dancers at RDR and are familiar with our repertoire. If
you would like their names for a gig, I will be happy to do so off list.
