Mendele Personal Notices & Announcements June 31, 2010
To minimize wear and tear on the untershames, three requests: 1. Send time-sensitive notices well in advance. 2. Send material as plain text: no HTML, other coding, or attachments;and write MENDELE PERSONALS in the subject line. 3. Correspond directly with the person who or organization which has posted the notice, *not* with your ever-beleaguered untershames. _____________________________________________________________ From: Beverly Bracha Weingrod <[email protected]> Date: Tue, May 25, 2010 at 3:36 PM Subject:Sutzkever reading "The Twin Sisters" on CD Among the many works of Sutzkever was a poignant story called The Twin-Sisters, in the book The Green Aquarium. We recently had the privilege and pleasure ofhearing the C.D of this story, accompanied by the dramatic and powerful music of Daniel Galay. The narration is in Yiddish, with an accompanying booklet in English and Hebrew. It was truly a moving experience. We learned later that was first performed in Tel Aviv in 2003, on the occasion of Avrom Sutzkever's 90th birthday.We highly recommend this experience to all who remember this great Yiddish writer. For C.D. information, contact Daniel Galay (who is also the head of Leivick House in Tel Aviv, and the Organization of Yiddish Writers in Israel) forinformation or call 972-3-6470522 or Email: [email protected] Prof. Alex and Bracha Weingrod _________________________________________________________________ Please do not use the "reply" key when writing to Mendele.
