Quick Plug for a Short Film
I want to recommend a very pleasant little documentary by Yale Strom, which will be having its premiere in tandem with what promises to be a swinging klezmer concert, in commemoration of an epochal photo taken about a year and a half ago of over 100 klezmer and Yiddish musicians and mavens. The film, "A Great Day on Eldridge Street," owes a bit to Jean Bach's "A Great Day in Harlem," as the title suggests. But it stands on its own as a warm tribute to a once-in-a-lifetime event. My review of it is here, and if you want to go to the event, you can find out more here.
