    My mandolin teacher asked me about some books on Klezmer music, and I thought someone here could come up with a book title or two. I think she is looking for Klezmer tunes.
    thanks,
    Nick

    I think that this one looks good, from Elderly's site.

    I've been studying the tunes in "The Compleat Klezmer" by Henry Sapoznik. (His other book "Klezmer!" about the history of klezmer music is also a reasonably good read.)

    If you are just looking for tunes, try Ultimate Klezmer, edited by Josh Horowitz, and The Music of Veretski Pass. Seach google for Ultimate Klezmer and veretski pass to find links. The second bookd is only available directly from the band.
