A
meeting of the Borough club members was held in the "Rimon"
JCC. In spite of the bad weather 25 people were eager to talk in Yiddish
and listen to Yakov Vinnitsky's lecture "At the Beginnings of Folk
Jewish Song".
With
bated breath the participants listened to a Yiddish legend by Melich Zafran.
Then Sima Branovitch sang "Eli Melech". The culmination point
of the meeting was a potpourri of Yiddish songs presented by "Nehama"
ensemble.
Many members of the Borough club value these songs as a memory
of their childhood. Some of them even had tears on their eyes. And in
order to control them the people joined "Nehama" in singing.
