liner notes
For those who are new to us we promise a respectful yet irreverent approach to a classic genre, klezmer, the history and culture of which we only partially belong to, which nevertheless we adore.
For those who know us already you will find new sounds (the piano, the glockenspiel, a strangely in-tune jerrycan, etc.), new type of tunes and the collaborations of musicians who share our passion for folklore immersed in chamber music, improvisation and folly.
