Hello Fred

you appear to play in the

<<
Kol Haruach Klezmer Band
Ebony and Ivory Duo
>>

ensembles. From contacts many (>10?) years ago I am aware you have a Jewish
background, thus the klezmer band doesn't surprise me. Weren't you at thst
time still a student of clarinet?

But I wondered suddenly about the Ebony and Ivory Duo. Does it mean this duo
(clarinet and piano?) is made up from a white and a black man? And if so,
why stress the difference in skin colour? I have many thoughts about it, but
I would like to hear your explanation.

Ciao

Rien
