It might be that the YouTube embed has been fixed. In any case, I did see links that don't work, but I imagine those links are to this site and were made during that week that we lost on the restore.

Beutiful playing and superb intonation, absolutely bang on. I agree with abitrusty, wish you would post more, its great having a completely different cultural form of music, full of sadness, excellently played, thanks for taking the time to join in was worth the wait.

Thanks for the kind words everyone 🙂
@ELCBK actually I know next to nothing about it. Platcsh Yisroel is the title of a mp3 track, from a book on klezmer fiddle ("Exploring Klezmer fiddle", by Chris Haigh). The book says it translates into "Cry, Israel" but I didn't find more info about this specific tune. I must admit I haven't read the whole book - it goes into the history of Jewish music and fiddle, with references to players, repertoire, ornamentation, and a CD of excerpts - you'd probably like it. In any case, the author has a website on which there's plenty of info, if you'd like some reading (https://fiddlingaround.co.uk/k.....index.html).

@wtw -
That's actually quite a bit of info - thank you!
I was really happy to find you playing Klezmer - and on the viola!
It's an intensely expressive genre and I really hope you share more.
I always enjoy listening to you play! 🎶🤗
