Celebratory Ashkenazic and Sephardic Music
from the European Jewish Tradition |
| Music before our wedding ceremony | |
| On 6 January 2001 Suzanne Goldstein Smith and I were married at Temple Israel in New York City. Before the ceremony we had music performed by the (expanded) choir of Temple Israel, directed by Louise Basbas.1 I had asked Louise for music on this theme and she put the program together accordingly. |  |
