Hello everybody, Can anyone help Jerry?

In 1984, EMI released an LP by a band called Pallas, and the title was The Sentinel. I heard CBS pressed this LP in Israel. Is it known where I can get a copy of the Israelian pressing of the LP? Do you know a place where I can look? Many thanks and best wishes, Jerry van Kooten --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).

Re: technology in performance (a bit OT)
Well, there's Hip Hop Khasene, the result of the collaboration between British Sophie Solomon and Canadian Socalled (Josh Dolgin). They performed recently in New York.

I don't know of any, and frankly cannot imagine a klezmer band, no matter how modern in approach to their music, replacing a performer or three with a pre-recorded sound run by laptops and/or synths in front of your eyes on stage. Are we more pure here than in Europe? Last night, me and my hubby heard three acts based in France or somehow connected to France (promoted by French Embassy to deflect from Freedom Fries, the story went) in a concert Vive La World at the venerable Hothouse in Chicago. One (sorry can't recall name) was a trio, lovely African chick singer, a guitarist and guy running about 12 pre-recorded tracks off a synth. Second, an AMAZING oud duo Duoud, left us breathless. Most of their songs combined the two ouds (one electric) with bass and drums off a laptop. Finally, Natasha Atlas, such a great singer (now based mostly in Egypt), 6-piece live back-up band and about 4 ghosts on pre-recorded tracks. Nobody minded. People went crazy. It was so HOT. I had some trouble with it. Am I being old-fashioned, which is my husband's opinion...or have we here in N.America different standards?

Re: la rosa enflorese
Judith, You are right, of course! it realised my mistake just after hitting send... Un beshiko, Lloica Bilbil is often loosely translated as nightingale, (bulbul) from the Persian via Turkish and Arabic , becoming the diminutive in Judeo-Spanish, bilbilicos. I've always thought it was a pretty schmaltzy kind of song, but the tune's great; it's often used for Tsur Mishelo akhalnu.

Re: La Rosa Enfloresa
Allen, The lyrics I know are: La rosa enflorece en el mes de Mai mi alma se escurece sufriendo del amor. Los bilbilicos cantan en los arbos de la flor debajo se asentan los que sufren del amor. Mas presto ven, palomba, mas presto ven a mi, mas presto tu, mi alma, que yo me vo morir. And I'll attempt a translation: The rose blooms in the month of May, my soul is shadowed by suffering of love. The little birds sing on the blooming trees, underneath them seat those who suffer of love. But come soon, beloved, come soon to me, soon, my soul, as I am going to die. So sad, so beautiful...

Jewish Jazz (was Main Interest)
Alf, Does the name of Henryk Gold (b. 1898 d. ?) sound familiar? According to the A Great European Big Bands Database (http://nfo.net), he: was a pioneer in the history of Polish jazz and dance music, as well as being one of the most prolific song writers in Poland during the inter-war years. Gold was born in 1898 in Warsaw into a very musical family in which all of the children were encouraged to play various instruments. His brother, Artur Gold (1903-1943), was also an orchestra leader and composer of note, writing many of the tangos that were popular during the 1920s and 30s. Gold became a violinist of some accomplishment, and his very Orthodox Jewish family presumed that he would take up a concert career, or play with a symphony orchestra. During the period immediately after WWI when Poland again became independent, Jazz, as popularized by the Original Dixieland Jazz Band, began to sweep Europe from west to east. Henryk Gold was caught up in the extreme popularity of this music and followed the lead of Zygmunt Karasinski, a saxophonist, who founded the very first Polish jazz band in 1923. Lots more on that site.

Re: Yiddish Tango!
Dear Sylvia,
It seems to me too that the marriage of tango and Yiddish song is an
extraordinary event, partly because of the great beauty and poignancy of the
songs, but especially because of its significance. It is through this music
that I came to understand my cultural identity as an Argentinian Jew.
I have been researching the history of the Yiddish tango for nearly four
years, and as listers may remember, I produced a show in London last
November with two wonderful tango musicians who are also Argentinian Jews
(the pianist arranger, Gustavo Beytelmann, is a familiar name as a tango
film music composer - for example in the Argentininan film The Jewish
Gauchos - and he played with people like Piazzolla). My research will be
published for the first time in the April edition of the UK magazine Jewish
Quarterly, and I'm hoping to have a CD out soon.
The songs I have found so far come from three places: the Yiddish Theatre in
New York and Buenos Aires (which in the 1940s and 30s was home to the second
largest Jewish community in the world) and the Eastern European ghettos
during WWII (excluding the two tangos rendered by Zalmen Mlotek and Adrienne
Cooper, with whom I was fortunate enough to study here in London). There is
more out there to find, and it is in my immediate plans to dedicate a couple
more years to this.
It seems to me that the root of Yiddish tango is intimately connected to the
spirit of tango itself. Therefore it is possible to find a song like 'Dos
Tango fun Oshvientshim' ('The Tango of Auschwitz'), written around the same
year that lyrics with strong social comments appeared in Buenos Aires, such
as 'Cambalache' ('Junk Shop').
I could carry on and on. This topic is absolutely fascinating. I hope that
my research will be of interest to you. Contact me off list if you need the
distribution details of the Jewish Quarterly.
There some more information on my website: www.lloiczackis.com/tangele.htm.
Gut shabes,
Lloica

Dear Listers and especially Lloica:
I have to own up that it was the Cooper-Mlotek Ghetto Tango that began to
open my awareness to the importance of the tango in modern Yiddish song.
The degree to which this theme has insinuated itself into Yiddish music
continues to amaze and astound me.
Yet until this very second, I had not connected Vu Ahin Zol Ikh Geyn with
that family of tango-inspired songs. But of course, it has all the
poignancy and despair that is tango -- now that I hear it in my head again,
of course! I wish I had a recording this minute to play.
We are going to be having a workshop at the conference of the International
Association of Yiddish Clubs (IAYC) on Yiddish Tango, complete with
archival Argentinian cinematic footage from the late 30's into the 50's and
60's. Also the pivotal involvement of Jewish Argentinian musicians and
actors in the world of mainstream Argentinian tango.
Any more Yiddish tango songs I should be aware of
Khag sameakh,
Sylvia Schildt

Hi Simon: Leschenko wasn't Jewish but his two best tango writers Strok

Marjanowski were. Anyway: please reserve a copy of Echoes for me for
when I blow by next month.
I've done a lot of looking-up on Strok, who wrote the tango original

his

Tangele - Yiddish Tango
Dear Sylvia, I have done a lot of research on Yiddish Tango for a show premiered in Lodnon last November, which I entitled Tangele: The Pulse of Yiddish Tango. I am very grateful to you and many other list-members for their valuable help. I am happy to share my findings with you, and look forward to bringing the programme to the USA in the near future. More information on Tangele is available on www.lloicaczackis.com/Tangele.htm. Best wishes, Lloica By the way, off topic -- we are doing a program on tangele (Yiddish tango) in February and at the IAYC conference in September, looking for Yiddish tango songs from between the wars -- this would include not only those written in Argentina, but world-wide.
