Much of this repertoire has not been heard for over a hundred years: Yiddish dance tunes that were played by Jewish musicians for weddings and celebration in Eastern Europe - skotshnes, bulgars, horas, freylekhs, polkas, mazurkas and more. These melodies were collected during field expeditions conducted between 1912-1914 and have recently been rediscovered in the Vernadsky National Library of Ukraine.
Susi Evans and Szilvia Csaranko are two exceptional musicians who are passionate about the tradition of klezmer music. They perform internationally as a clarinet and accordion duo and are dedicated to teaching klezmer workshops for students of all levels.
Line-up:
Susi Evans (GB/D) - clarinet
Szilvia Csaranko (D) - accordion, piano
