Recently I took a girls' trip to New York. Based on recommendations in the Cafe, we saw Andy Statman perform at a synagogue in Greenwich Village. What an experience! I was not expecting such an intimate venue. Andy and his trio set up in a small room, which had a few chairs set up in rows, plus a table with a few chairs. Wish I had thought to take a picture of the room. Anyway, we were 4 of only about 20 people. I believe these performances are somewhat regular, but must be the best kept secret in town.
Andy graciously offered to let me play his mandolin after the performance. If all goes well, I'll post my favorite video of that night, as well as a picture of Andy and me. (I have permission to post the video here.)
