🕵️old klezmers🎻While going through my list of NY #klezmer names this week, I've been looking into the Axelrod family of musicians who were from Zolochiv and came to NYC around 1906.They mostly became members of the Progressive Musical Benevolent Society which was a mutual aid society for klezmorim and other Jewish immigrant musicians in NY. Still trying to sort out how some seem to have moved a second time to Detroit and Chicago fairly early on.
