Sarah,
if you think that your yound student could become a genuine musician,
please keep him away from that disgusting fraud Feidman! Agreed,
Tarras and Brandwein are no longer around, but you will certainly
find a real Klezmer in Israel?
BTW, the Sephardic musicians I have heard so far play in an Ottoman
(Salonikian) tradition which I don't think you would refer to as
klezmer (even if played strictly instrumentally which is the
exception), so what does that child play and where did his family
pick up that style?

Bets wishes
