  19. My latest #blog post, trying to sort and make a bit more sense of all the scores I got from the Library of Congress from #klezmer bandleader and recording artist Israel J. Hochman. I made a table trying to connect his music manuscripts to commercial #78rpm recordings by Hochman's various groups in the 1910s and 20s.
