Another day, another dance party. A tribute to German Goldenshteyn. It was nice to see the whole klezmer community coming together to help his family. The musicians came from as far as Montreal, Austin and not-so-near Connecticut. Phila was well represented too. Like a mini-reunion of KlezKanada crowd. Zev Feldman led the dancing.

Do you know Romashka (Inna B.'s band?) They also sing Klezmer music.

Yep, I know Inna and Jake, their violin player.
