Transylvania: the lovely Julie Dawson has organized a tour for 'Di Goldene Feder' which is Sarah Alden and I. Here is the info conveniently in both Romanian and English:
And then to Budapest. Not sure yet where I will be staying but, I will be taking some music lessons and eating, drinking and bathing. Maybe doing some dancing too.
I hope to be able to share some adventures with you.

This is the Program description!!!
Duetul „Di Goldene Feder“ format din Benjy Fox-Rosen (voce, bas, banjo) şi Sarah Alden (voce, vioară) din New York City prezintă "A Redele iz di Gore Velt", Întreaga Lume este o Roată Mică, un program de cântece idiş din Europa de Est. Programul va include cântece populare dar şi cântece compuse de unii dintre cei mai iubiţi compozitori şi poeţi idiş.
După concertul din Viena la Festivalul KlezMORE cu formaţia, Luminescent Orchestrii, Benjy şi Sarah vor cânta o săptămână în Transilvania. În scurt timp, Benjy Fox-Rosen a reuşit să ajungă un solist, basist şi compozitor important de muzică evreiască din New York cu interpretarea lui unică a cântecelor populare evreieşti. Sarah Alden este una dintre cele mai bune violoniste a stilurilor de muzică din Europa de Est şi muzică populară americană. A călătorit mult în România şi Ungaria învăţând stiluri de a cânta la vioară specifice Europei de Est.
The duet "Di Goldene Feder" with New York City's Benjy Fox-Rosen (voice, bass, banjo) and Sarah Alden (voice, fiddle) present "A Redele iz di Gore Velt", The Whole World is a Little Wheel, a program of Yiddish songs from throughout Eastern Europe. The program will include folksongs as well as songs written by some of Yiddish's most beloved songwriters and poets.
After performing in Vienna's Klezmore Festival with their other band Luminescent Orchestrii, Benjy and Sarah will spend one week performing in Transylvania. Benjy Fox-Rosen is quickly emerging as an important singer, bassist and composer in New York City's Jewish music scene with his unique interpretations and approach to Yiddish Folksongs. Sarah Alden is one of New York's finest fiddlers of both Eastern European styles as well as American Folk music. She has travelled extensively in Romania and Hungary learning the fiddle styles of Eastern Europe.
