  ... Bass (Has). Why Bas? In our town, it was impossible for someone not to be given a nickname. *4Has" is close to 44bass" and the bass was the big, clumsy instrument handed down from generation to generation. The orchestra consisted of: Alter-the oldest player-, his brother 44Yekel" (Yaakov), his brother-in-law (Bass’s son-in-law) Naftali and last but not least Alter’s son Shaye. The orchestra’s director, Shabtai Auerbach, joined the group but was never accepted as an equal since there was no daughter left for him to marry in order to be one of the family.

Hersh Katz crowned the mound with the name of Balkan. When melted, it formed garbage. My neighbours were: Berel the cripple, Dovid "Der Kurizer (the short), Shaya Yosef, the Waggoner (wagon owner), Shabtai Auerbach, 1 the only Klezmer who knew notes and other Klez- merim of the Hass house. Shabtai was blessed with a daughter Sisl, who was the most beautiful daughter in Mikulince. On passing the Balkan, you could hear the pounding of hammers, the whirr of the sewing machines, the knock of wooden nails on the shoemakers bench, the sound of song from the crafts- men’s apprentice, the sound of the violin, flute, drum ...
