A kwestion for klezmer klarinet players:

Do people generally play klezmer tunes in the 'right' key? Are tunes
particularly easy in the key that they were written for? When people get
together to jam, do you have to negotiate keys, or does every know the
tunes in the same key?

Unrelated question:
Do you know of any written transcription of I.J.Hochman's Russiche Sher?
Is it in any of the Tara Books?

THanks! -joe
