Lorraine Gutenplan Silverberg Klein has been working on an album of Yiddish folk tunes, which is not only a legacy but also a benefit album. Lorraine grew up singing this music - in a language that is now threatening to die out. Her efforts to keep it alive will not only benefit her grandchildren, but all of us - and I'm not just talking about those few words we all know and love to use. Be a "mensch" and do a "mazel" of a mitzvah. The album comes with an opportunity to learn a scarce language, which will include Yiddish transliterations and English translations. Thanks for your continued support!

A Wonderful Tribute - Santa Barbara Classical Guitar Scene
Thanks to one of my favorite classical guitar students, Joe Miller, for a nice tribute on his blog: "Much thanks goes to a dedicated guitarist and excellent instructor, Mike Witt, who gave me more than two years of solid instruction, and nurtured my confidence." Joe is an accomplished writer and vocalist, and has built an incredible classical guitar repertoire over the two years in lessons. He continues with his passion as a motivated player and performer in Santa Barbara.
