TPTA13: Franciska- A Small Piece of the Puzzle

Episode 13 was headlined by a conversation with Franciska!  Even if c"v you have not yet been exposed to Franciska's music and the messages she's able to relay through her professionally-done music videos, you may have come across The Franciska Show or have heard about her company, Kay Productions LLC. Franciska is all about advocating for and promoting your cause. She leads by example on how to use a platform to impactfully fill a void. She’s constantly looking for ways to maximize her skillset and optimize her reach. I recommend checking out some of her projects.  Host: Simcha Kranczer, certified Fran stan. simcha.tpta@gmail.com 718-887-6211  Guest: Franciska  www.franciskamusic.com  www.franciskakosman.com  franciskakay@gmail.com  Outie: “Best That I Can”- https://music.apple.com/us/album/best-that-i-can/1624947940?i=1624947941&ls  https://youtu.be/KsF_7CKSqBc A reminder to share this podcast with whomever you think would enjoy it or would benefit from it.

TPTA12: What You Have to Offer

Episode 12 welcomes in Shlomo Sonnenberg. Shlomo has already begun establishing himself as a go-to for arrangements and productions... and it’s just the beginning. He continues to work on his craft as he delicately balances his own musical intuitions and convictions while also remaining open-minded as he caters to the client’s visions.  Undoubtedly, we will hear big things from Shlomo- as a vocalist, musician, composer, arranger, producer, and I'm sure more. I’m glad we were able to connect BEFORE the bandwagon forms.

TPTA11: Understanding Your Audience

Episode 11 was graced by musician Binyomin Ginzberg (of Breslov Bar Band). Binyomin has had such a vast array of experiences, from performing at all types of events (whether individually or as part of the two bands he’s put together) to releasing albums and even writing and publishing a book. Be it arrangements, transcriptions, or even retrieving nuggets of Jewish music history, Binyomin has so much to offer. I’m delighted that he was able to share some insights with us.  Host: Simcha Kranczer    simcha.tpta@gmail.com   718-887-6211   Guest: Binyomin Ginzberg BreslovBarBand.Bandcamp.com http://www.jewishmusician.com  Outie: “Mordechai Medley”- Purim Sameach https://music.apple.com/us/album/purim-sameach/308286292  A reminder to share this podcast with whomever you think would enjoy it or would benefit from it.

TPTA10: A Jewish Soul Searching for Jewish Music

In episode 10, we get to meet Yaakov Wasilewicz (Va-shee-leh-vitch, I think). Yaakov has quite a unique and impressive story and shares some charming instances of hashgacha along the way. It's very fulfilling (as well as one of the primary focuses of this podcast) getting a chance to know and promote a musical personality who is so easy to root for. Yaakov absolutely fits that criteria.  Host: Simcha Kranczer    simcha.tpta@gmail.com   718-887-6211   Guest: Yaakov Wasilewicz  Yaakov.W.Music@gmail.com  https://youtube.com/channel/UCsL-I8jImS5GaBs5cPXyl7A Outie: "Akeida"- Yaakov Wascilewicz https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2w-Zd3nconU    The Yaakov.W.Music project depends on support from individual donors like you in order to continue creating original Music content and to make it available to thousands across the globe.
