| Quote: | If you remember that one of the first Klez revival albums to catch my eye was the Statman/Feldman "Jewish Klezmer Music," featuring instrumentation similar to this album (clarinet and tsimbl), you'll immediately understand why I am inclined to enjoy this album, as well. This is an easy task when the musicians are as good as Rubin and Horowitz. This is a pleasant, slow album, with occasional moments of excitement as the clarinet and tsimbl (Jewish hammer dulcimer) chase each other's melodies. Horowitz' button accordion also lends an anachronistic, archaic flavor to the music. It is fun to compare this album to the thoroughly pleasant effort covering a similar period, by the Hungarian(?) folk group, Muzsikás, "Máramaros: The Lost Jewish Music of Translyvania."
By early, as it happens, Rubin and Horowitz seem to mean music as it was played 50 and 100 years ago. From the liner notes: "Klezmer performance practice at the turn of the century was markedly different than today. Earlier performances placed more emphasis on expression than on perfection, and showed a more exaggerated use of trills, slides, and krekhtsn (Yidd. = moans; used to describe the various voice-like ornaments emulating the sighing and crying type of singing found in synagogue song). The older aesthetic also favored jagged phrasings of the melody, which lent energy and SPAMise to the line. Tempi were not neat and constant, but changed continually throughout the course of the performance, being pushed and pulled at the whim of the players. Historical performances also show subtle and abundant variations, often on a minute scale. Accompaniments seldom repeated patterns relentlessly, but were constantly adjusted to the rhythm and shape of the melody...." - Ari Davidow |

| Quote: | Simply music – that’s what occures to Yinon Muallem’s mind if you ask him about what’s driving him round. He may be right – from his personal view. But for the listener it’s much more, and it’s for sure nothing simple. Yinon Muallem was born in Israel to a family of Iraqi origin. Playing Middle Eastern percussion instruments, he developed his own style very soon. Among others, he collaborated with Ross Daly, Alim Gazimov and Omar Faruk Tekbilek.
Since 2002 he has been living and working in Istanbul. “Klezmer for the Sultan” could be described as a provisional result of Yinon’s reception of and occupation with the huge variety and great legacy of Turkish music with all its different favors. It’s an occupation not only of a gifted instrumentalist but also of a remarkable composer. However, his playing and his compositions are as well influenced by Arabic, Indian, Balkan, Persian, Jewish and Jazz music - all of which he was exposed to in his youth.
On this recording he is supported by a group of musicians who work with him in different formations – be it the classical ensemble “Istanbul Sazandeleri” or the “Café Istanbul” project. |
| Quote: | Israeli percussionist Yinon Muallem, whose main expertise is Middle Eastern percussion instruments such as the darbuka, def, bendir, and the Iranian zarb, decided three years ago to pursue his career in Turkey. It was a wise decision. In Istanbul, Muallem continued to refine his style under the direction of one of Turkey's foremost oud player, Yurdal Torkan, and soon joined one of the leading instrumental ensembles of Turkey, the Istanbul Sazendeleri.
Muallem's second disc, Klezmer for the Sultan (after Changing Moments, Magda, 2003), was recorded in Turkey and in Israel under the musical direction of Torkan, with members of the Istanbul Sazendeleri and Muallem's former Israeli colleagues. Muallem managed to synthesize influences from traditional Turkish music, Sufi music, gypsy music, klezmer music, and even glimpses of Balkan and Indian music into a mature, convincing, and cohesive musical statement.
In the title tune Muallem cleverly fuses a piece from the repertoire of one of the forefathers of klezmer music, clarinet player Naftule Brandewin, “Fun Tashlikh” (recorded in the 1920s), with a Turkish dance from the time of the Ottoman Empire. The slow opening Eastern European klezmer part, led by Israeli clarinet player Eyal Sela, melts naturally into the faster Turkish part, led by Turkish clarinet player Serkan Çagri, who improvises on a 9/8 rhythm which is typical to Turkish gypsy music. “Heavy Drops” mourns the terror attacks on Istanbul, when “the raindrops were much heavier,” as Muallem writes in his liner notes, and features the meditative ney playing of Israeli Itamazr Shahar and the vocal improvisation of Selim Güler. “Spanish Girl” references gently themes from the Sephardic Jewish Ladino tradition.
“The Tale” features Muallem for the first time as a sensitive oud player, accompanied by his teacher, Tokcan, and the sensual vocals of Sumru Agiryürüyen, who delivers the lyrics of Ercümend Behazat Lav beautifully. “Triangle” is a piece for percussion, bass guitar, and tabla which moves swiftly between 5/4 and 4/4 rhythms. The closing piece, ”Unlimited,” is dedicated to the gypsy soul as Muallem interprets it; it features a brilliant violin improvisation, Taksim, by Baki Kemanci, and sums up Muallem's captivating command of these close traditions of music. - Eyal Hareuveni |

Composed of both recent Soviet emigres and Israelis, Sulam is perhaps the most popular Klezmer group in the Promised Land. ~ Leon Jackson
| Quote: | | It is mind-blowing that this is Moshe Berlin's first recording. It has certainly been one of my favorites for a lot of years. Recorded in Germany with a versatile ensemble that includes Roman Kunsman on flute (leader of Israel's most famous 1970s jazz band, Platina) and others equally stellar, the real star here is Berlin, whose clarinet soars through traditional melodies that often sound just a bit different from what we are more used to in the United States. The repertoire also ranges from traditional Eastern European to klezmer to modern hasidic. Some of that has to do with the concept of the "Meron" tradition. Meron is a town near Tzfat (Safed) in Israel's north. During the 16th century, the world's major kabbalists--men like Luria and Josef Caro--shaped much of what we now know as Jewish spirituality in Tzfat. Today's Meron tradition likelier harks back to the Hasidic influx of the 19th century, but even so, these tunes, as played by Berlin, embody a spirituality and grace that is seldom captured--or even understood to be part of klezmer. Even when the band plays familiar tunes, as on the "Yiddish Nign and Dances" with stitched together melodies from "Belz" and "Oyfn Prepetchik", featuring solos by Kunsman, there is a grace and skill to this playing that is rare. Sadly, Berlin is not only the extraordinary klezmer from Israel, but possibly the only klezmer from Israel worth listening to. Given skill and soul this deep, that's enough. - Ari Dawidow |

| Quote: | Over the last few years, the ubiquitous Rita Ottens and Joel Rubin have released several compilations documenting Jewish and Klezmer music. This volume is the first in a series of three now available in the United States. It contains one of my favorite selections of original klezmer recordings, reasonably cleaned up and listenable. Among other notables, this is the largest collection of Brandwein recordings available to date. Generous helpings of tzimbalom also make this special. This series is vital for anyone who wants a sense of what klezmer is and where it is going. This album covers the recent past (the beginning of this century). I have the original Trikont version with the German liner notes, and my German is less than perfect, so if there are mistakes in the translations, below, please correct me nicely. It's too bad, because these recordings are wonderfully and extensively documented, from personnel, when and where the recordings were made, to much information about the musicians. (If you get the Harmonia Mundi USA versions, generally available in the United States and Canada, this wonderful documentation is in English.)
In a quick overview, written in mid-1992, I wrote: "With no fanfare, and quaintly translated liner notes (English, German, French) we have a new compilation of klez recordings from the first half of this century called Yikhes. Quite tasty--includes some Brandwein and Tarras, as well as some bands and tunes that are unfamiliar." It's five years later and I'm still enjoying this, although on my version I can find no trace of the French and German I noted five years ago. Did I lose something? Oh, and the cymbalom player used as an icon for these klezmer pages was scanned from the liner notes to this collection. - Ari Dawidow
The first of three volumes in Trikont's Klezmer series puts to shame the ones issued by Yazoo and Music & Arts. These early recordings of Naftule Brandwein, Dave Tarras, Josef Solinski, Leon Ahl, Abe Schwartz, Joseph Moskowitz, and many others on this 18-track retrospective reveal the deep and ancient roots of the Lineage Stammbaum. Culled from the personal collection of klezmer historian Dr. Martin Schwartz, the music presented here traces the movement of Jewish music around Eastern Europe from 1911 to the Shoah, Stalinism, and dispersion of Jews to other parts of the world where political forces and cultural assimilation all but destroyed this great music until the 1970s when it was recorded again. What took place before this time is part only of cultural memory; what happened between 1939 and the '70s is horrific. The Klezmorim were musicians. Klez, translated, means musician. Mer means song, and this we have klezmer music as the musician's song. The recordings here bare out why the definition is important; these are rigorous instrumental workouts, full of improvisation and tempo and mode changes, they are dizzying. 2005. |

| Quote: | Karsten Troyke (born Karsten Bertolt Sellhorn on 14 August 1960 in Berlin) is a German singer, actor, and speaker. He is best known as an interpreter of Yiddish song.
Performing on stage since 1982, Troyke had earlier worked as a gardener and with mentally handicapped children. He studied singing (with Leonore Gendries) as well as drama and speaking, and in 1990 he gave up his work to dedicate himself completely to musical performance and theater. Troyke participated in radio plays, worked as a voice actor (dubbing), and participated in various stage plays.
As a singer, his album Yiddish Anders (1992) received the praise of German record critics. Jidische Vergessene Lieder (1997) contained previously unpublished songs of Sara Bialas Tenenberg, who became his mentor for the Yiddish language.
In his performances Troyke often works with Bettina Wegner, Suzanna and the Trio Scho. His interpretations of the songs of Georg Kreisler received mention in the writer/musician's 2005 biography. In 2006 two documentaries, Yiddish Soul and Concert Yiddish Soul, featured Troyke and other performers of Yiddish music. |

A founding member of Kapelye since the band's inception in 1979, Ken has performed in hundreds of appearances on stage, television, radio and film throughout North America and Europe. As one of the early pioneers of the klezmer revival, he has received critical acclaim from both the domestic and international press. Such diverse sources as The New York Times and The Berlin Morning Post have spoken of his performances in the most glowing terms. Ever conscious of the importance of both promoting Yiddish culture and passing it on to future generations, Ken can often be found at festivals, conferences, master classes and workshops; instructing students both young and old in the art of the klezmer. Indeed, his love for klezmer music and his ability as a teacher have earned him a following of students on three continents.
Peter Sokolow (keyboard and vocals) has appeared with klezmer musicians Dave Tarras, the Epstein brothers, Sid Beckerman, Ray Musiker and others of equal renown. Among his orchestrations are eight albums of Chabad (Lubavitch) nigunim, two albums for Shlomo Carlebach, the off-Broadway musical "The Golden Land", the Yiddish musical "Heintige Kinder" and the score for the documentary film "Partisans of Vilna." In addition to Mr. Sokolow's work in the field of Jewish music, he is a highly regarded performer in society , Irish and" pop" orchestras and enjoys a fine reputation as a stride pianist a la Fats Waller.

| Quote: | The Safad Chamber Orchestra is a dream in the making, and a concept whose time has come. For the first time in history, an orchestra dedicates itself to the music of this land and its people. From Safad, where the Kabbala masters marveled at the harmony of the celestial sheres, the universal language of music sets our souls aflight.
It is the wish of the 'Safad Foundation', together with Giora Feidman, the driving force behind this initiative, that this unique spiritual art form will be enjoyed by as broad an audience as possible. Just as the historic sites and traditions of Safad have meaning for us even today, its music can feed our spirits and touch our souls. |

| Quote: | | "Rubin's clarinet soars up to the top, opens up spaces, stings, shrieks, suffers, laughs -- expressivity artistically brought into form, a balancing act between the deepest abyss and the heavens above. Add to this Jacomucci's accordion, earthy, rather introverted... The melody instruments are framed by the orchestra, which creates a steadily pulsing carpet of sound. On top of this foundation emerge detours, melodic bridges, repeat structures which continually increase in intensity. This signalizes a readiness to abandon oneself, it is formed ecstasy, transmits large (and small) feelings and, yet, keeps the fragility of being and the self in the present. The sounds and melodies of the Jewish Music Ensemble are epic stories transformed into music." - Michael Baas |
| Quote: | Joel Rubin is best-known as probably the best virtuoso clarinet player in the Klezmer genre. Or perhaps as a member of Brave Old World, whose self-titled album was recently re-released on CD as Hungry Hearts, and features many hard to find clarinet solos from Klezmer of the early part of this century. But then, maybe Rubin is most noted as an ethnomusicologist studying early Jewish music, mushc of which he documents at the Jewish Cultural Programming and Research with his partner Rita Ottens, an ethnomusicologistin her own right.
I recently asked Rubin some questions about his career as a Jewish musician, and as you'll see, there are many different facets to this man's music. Paula: How do you define your role as a Jewish musician?
Joel: I don't really see my self as a Jewish musician per se. I happen to be Jewish, and the music I play is certainly Jewish in content (Joachim Stutschewsky called it the most Jewish music the Jews have got!) -- but I am first and foremost a musician and an artist in this diverse world. I was playing Beethoven, Schoenberg and Cage long before I got involved in Jewish instrumental music from Eastern Europe ("klezmer"). I also spent years playing Greek clarinet styles.
Paula: How has Jewish music changed since you started your career, until now?
Joel: I try not to pay too much attention to the trends in Jewish music and concentrate on what I feel is my own way of expressing myself within the musical framework. I personally do not believe there is any such thing as "Jewish music". There are hundreds of traditions which have been developed by Jews throughout the world over the course of two millenia. Klezmer music is one of them, and even klezmer has developed and grown over a period of four or five centuries -- and in the past century expanded into all sorts of different directions --, so that I am reluctant to use this terminology at all. Paula: What do you see as the future for Jewish music?
Joel: Did Beethoven think about the future of German music? Again, I am really mostly concerned with developing my own music. As I think that a question as to what the future for Jewish music will be really amounts to seeking an answer as to what the future of Judaism will be, I am leaving the prognosis of the future of Jewish music to the idealogues. By the way, nobody in Israel would ask a question like that; here in Germany where I am currently residing people seem completely obsessed with this question.
Paula: What Jewish/Klezmer acts are around now that you think are particularly hot, and why?
Joel: At the moment, I've mostly been listening to contemporary chamber music by Morton Feldman, John Cage, Barbara Monk Feldman, Giacinto Scelsi and others, as I am very interested in abstract composition patterns which relate to another favorite topic of mine, abstract paintings, which I collect. I also find traditional and classical Turkish, Arabic, Greek, Armenian and Persian music inspiring for their craft, spirituality and serenity, qualities which are sadly missing in a lot of the Jewish/klezmer music of recent decades. Other than the wonderful historical recordings of cantors, klezmorim and Yiddish theater singers I enjoy Hasidic field recordings from Israel. A lot of those musicians are friends and colleagues during many years of field research and jamming in Israel.
Paula: What projects are you working on right now that you would like to discuss?
Joel: As I am in the very last stages of my dissertation on early twentieth century klezmer clarinet style I unfortunately don't have much time for all the other projects that I am supposed to be doing. But I am putting together a new program for the next recording my Joel Rubin Jewish Music Ensemble. It will be a continuation of the work I did on my last recording, Beregovski's Khasene. Forgotten Instrumental Treasures from the Ukraine (Schott Wergo 1614-2), drawing upon unknown klezmer and hasidic music from the Ukrainian Jewish collections. There will be guest artists from Russia and Israel. |
