 >an article in the New York Times in the last year about the Klezmer revival happening in eastern europe, without Jews.<
 
 Hey Ralph,
 
 you mean the Jeremy Eichler article? That was more about Germany (again) and the Weimar klezmer weeks. As for Western Europe, the revival is pretty non-Jewish for the most part, but in Russia and Ukraine it's definitely mostly Jews who explore klezmer music. In general it blends more and more, which is a good thing, I think. (Well, what can you say with a crossover name like mine...?)  :-)
