Fusing bluegrass and American roots music, avant-garde jazz, Jewish klezmer and Hassidic sources, Andy Statman has reached legendary status in the Jewish and non-Jewish music worlds.

Andy infuses classic American sounds with spirituality and Jewish mysticism, creating a truly unique experience for audiences of all ages. Accompanied by Larry Eagle on drums and James Whitney on the bass, the Andy Statman Trio puts on a stunning and versatile show.
“a music [not] bound by denomination but a beautiful, vital sound full of heat, heart and a love of God.”
—Rolling Stone
“The moods range from joyously vibrant to darkly plaintive. A fascinating and moving mixture.”
—Jazz Times
This performance is funded by the Arthur Tracy “The Street Singer” Endowment Fund.

Shirim Klezmer Orchestra, Cambridge, MA, 24 May 2009
Klezmer at the Lilypad, with a special emphasis on the Romanian roots of klezmer- some great Romanian tunes will be thrown into the mix. Also, we will be the Shirim Klezmer Quartet this month—core members Glenn Dickson, Michael, Eric & Jim, who have been playing together for longer than we can remember will be holding the klezmer fort alone this time. It should be a lot of fun. Bring your kids, bring your grandmother! The last show was packed, there was kozatski dancing and a line dance that went out onto the sidewalks of Cambridge! A real party! Let’s do it again!
Here are the details:
May 24, 2:00pm at the Lilypad, 1353 Cambridge St., Inman Square, Cambridge, MA Suggested donation, $10, $7/kids.
This special performance will feature the four members who have been with the band the longest: Glenn Dickson, clarinet; Michael McLaughlin, accordion; Jim Gray, tuba; and Eric Rosenthal, drums. They have been playing together for over 15 years and have a rapport and tightness that only comes with such experience together.

Yom, New King of Klezmer Clarinet, Paris, France, 9 Apr 2009
YOM, NEW KING OF KLEZMER CLARINET
EN CONCERT AU NEW MORNING
LE 9 AVRIL 2009 A 20H30
+ invités (Wang Li et Farid D.)
BÉNÉFICIEZ D'UN TARIF RÉDUIT: 15 EUROS AU LIEU DE 20 EUROS
Présentation :
Reconnu comme un des grands Virtuoses de la clarinette
Klezmer, Yom rend hommage dans son premier album solo au pionnier
génial et mégalomaniaque du klezmer new-yorkais dans les années 20,
autoproclamé "King of Klezmer Clarinet"; Naftule Brandwein.
Le quartet (Denis Cuniot, piano; Alexandre Giffard, Tapan et Benoît
Giffard, Trombone) se pose comme une des grandes références,
virevoltant entre une écriture débridée et l'improvisation constante
des thèmes, entre virtuosité, spiritualité, émotivité et une vélocité à
toute épreuve; l'essence du klezmer.
Remarqué avec la sortie de son premier album ainsi que par son passage
à Nanterre avec l’ « Empereur » de la clarinette Giora Feidman, on le
verra cette saison au Orientales de St-Florent le Veil, à Jazz Sous les
Pommiers, Sziget Festival, Crest Jazz Vocal, Les Nuits Européennes et
les Nuits du Sud entre autres.
Avide de rencontres et de Création, c’est en compagnie de Wang Li
(Flûtes et Guimbardes chinoises) et de Farid D. (Violoncelle
Electrique) que Yom ouvrira en Duos intimistes les frontières du
Klezmer vers des horizons improbables et remplis d’une magie nouvelle.

Hankus Netsky Presents The Music of Morris Hollender, Waltham, MA, 5 Apr 2009
Hankus Netsky Presents The Music of Morris Hollender
On Sunday, April 5th at 4PM Temple Beth Israel of Waltham will sponsor a concert featuring nigunim, klezmer tunes, cantorials, and Yiddish folk songs from the repertoire of Morris Hollender, the temple’s long-time baal t’file (lay cantor) and baal korey (Torah reader). The concert, organized by local musician, ethnomusicologist, and Temple member Hankus Netsky, will feature prominent local singers and the twenty-piece New England Conservatory Jewish Music Ensemble.
Originally from Carpato-Ruthenia, Morris Hollender’s father, uncle, and brothers were all renowned for their singing and their knowledge of nigunim (melodies) from local and legendary Hassidic rabbis and traditional cantors. A survivor of Auschwitz and a former resident of postwar Czechoslovakia, Mr. Hollender emigrated to America with his wife, Edith (also a survivor) in 1968. The April 5th concert is the result of Hankus Netsky’s ongoing work with the Mr. Hollender through the National Yiddish Book Center’s “Discovery Project,” an activist Jewish cultural recovery project that he directs. “It is extraordinary to have the opportunity to bring this precious Jewish musical legacy back to life, and to be able to pass these treasures on our students and to the general public,” says Netsky.
Temple Beth Israel is located at 25 Harvard St.
in Waltham, one block from Main St. on the 70 bus line. Tickets are $10 (a special $5 rate is available for Beth Israel members). The synagogue is fully handicapped accessible. For more information call 781 894 5146, or contact the temple at www.tbiwaltham.org. Group discounts are also available.

The Other Seder Songs
Thursday 26th March, 7:30pm
Los Desterrados, Oi Va Voi and the Yiddish Twist Orchestra will rock out the JCC's Other Seder. For the third consecutive year, we present our unique take on the Seder, as each band performs a song inspired by the after-dinner songs as the launching point for their set.
Cualos son los uno
Six-piece Los Desterrados, who released their third album, Miradores at the end of 2008, bring their mix of ladino, flamenco, Moorish and Gypsy flavours to the Seder.
"Los Des take the Medieval music of the Sephardic Jews, with its strong Latin influences, and drag it effortlessly into the 21st Century with lashings of Spanish folk and Balkan Soul to deliver a series of rousing, melancholic songs that pulse with rhythm and feeling" (London Metro)
Adir Hu
London's superfly klezmer / punk / gypsy outfit Oi Va Voi give us a sneak preview of their forthcoming third album, Traveling the Face of the Globe.
"Kudos, culture, vision.Oi Va Voi. Remember the name"YTO Merlin

The JCC's own creation, the fabulous Yiddish Twist Orchestra, will set the dance floor swinging with their hard-dancing, pulp fiction style 50s and 60s Yiddish surf twist!

“KLEZMERQUERQUE” Albuquerque New Mexico’s annual Klezmer music and dance festival celebrates its seventh year February 12-15, 2009 (Presidents Day weekend).
On Saturday morning, February 14th from 9:30am-11:00am the Strauss Warschauer Duo will lead “SHABBOS, MUSIC AND YIDDISH”, a hands-on workshop of Hassidic Niggunim (melodies) and Yiddish Sabbath songs for singers and instrumentalists. No previous experience necessary. All ages, levels and backgrounds welcome. Brin Ingber will teach dances from the Eastern European Jewish wedding repertoire including Rebbe Elimelech tanz and Kayzad merakdim. Classes cost $20-general and $16 for seniors, students and fixed income. From noon-2pm there will be a catered lunch. After the catered luncheon Brin Ingber will present "Why Jews Aren't Just People of the Book" with rare and historic dance illustrations and music for Jewish dance in far flung communities through the ages. Following her powerpoint presentation there will be time for questions. The price for the ‘Lunch ‘n Presentation’ is an $8-$15 suggested donation.

The dance will be accompanied by the chanting of Brin Ingber’s sister Rabbi Deborah Brin, who is also the Rabbi of Congregation Nahalat Shalom. “Roles Not Taken” a dance combining music theatre, ballet and Israeli folk dance presents a surprising view on issues of Jewish identity.

Brin Ingber will also lead dances that she taught in her morning class. Price for this event is $18-in advance and $20-general, $18-seniors and students at the door.

Full of warmth and good humour, this highly danceable music is big on rhythm and alive with energy—little wonder their concerts are always so popular. Exhilarating both to hear and watch, catch this exciting klezmer/Balkan groove from some of Scotland's finest musicians.

Josh Horowitz & Cookie Segelstein, Madison, CT, 11 Jan 2009
On Sunday Jan. 11, 2009 at 1:30pm, Friends of Scranton Library invite you to
kick off the new year with an energetic musical program by The
Horowitz-Segelstein Duo at Scranton Library, 801 Post Rd., in Madison, CT. Cookie
Segelstein and Josh Horowitz, both accomplished and celebrated local
musicians, carry on the ancient tradition of klezmer in an unbound,
energetic village style playing Jewish instrumental music of historical
Eastern Europe. These two musicians represent a new generation of players of
Klezmer music which reaches back at least 125 years in time to Eastern
European Jews and traditional folk music using familiar and possibly
unfamiliar instruments—the tsimbl, a 19th century Button Accordion and a
violin. Program is free and open to the public of all ages. Light
refreshments will be served. Handicapped accessible. For directions to
Scranton Library or to RSVP, please call (203) 245-7365.
