Background
[edit | edit source]Erlih was born in France in 1928 to first-generation immigrants to France from Bessarabia (now Moldova).[2] His father was a folk musician who played the cimbalon and pan pipes. His parents made sure that he spoke only French so that he would not be known as an immigrant.
