Thanks to my PC things don't get lost as letters often did. I found
this most interesting attribute to Leibu Levin and would like to thank
Abraham for it. Just sitting and reading about this man I feel
dreadfully sorry that I have never heard him read or sing Yiddish. The
drive in Israel through Ben Gurion and long before him Jabotinsky not
to make it the national language as it was the Gallut (diaspora)
language, which I agree with entirely, I feel that I have lost a
treasure which should be found as archeologists discover treasures of
the past. Of course I heard many people reading Shalom Aleichem but
never by people like Leibu Levin, the way he sounds here. A troubadour
singing in this lost language, what a pity and my children and
grandchildren never will discover it.
Thank you Abraham again and thank you Cornel for allowing us to share in it.
Regards, anny
