I met him in Paris some years ago in the Yiddish House as I was singing in a choir with Shura Lipovsky : she said that we will have a great surprise...
He came in the room, hear us singing and then began to sing with us during 1 hour.
So patient and smiling !
A great moment : I was so moved to meet him !
