  1. Here's a little mazurka composed and played by me, accompanied by my friend Ron Fisher. We were actually sitting on top of a drumlin (a hill formed of glacial till) when we recorded it.

  2. Rather a niche discovery, but in poking around among the #klezmer copyright scores I got from the US Library of Congress over the last year, I noticed that one of Max Leibowitz's 1919 submissions is a well known piece from the klez #violin repertoire commonly called Romanian Fantasy No. 3. Leibowitz was a Romanian violinist living in New York who I believe started the trend of klezmer musicians copyrighting folk melodies.
