The Big Klezmer Fake Book Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)First, it's a great collection. My only quibble is with the editing, specifically for page turns. As a clarinetist and pianist, I have to stop and turn pages during at least a third of the tunes. I'd really like to save a trip to the copy shop. Also, Freylach no. 15 disappears at the bottom of page 24 and resurfaces at the top of page 38. What's with that? It's good to have all these tunes together, though. Well worth getting, but you may need to make a run to Kinko's.
