You have no idea how good these guys are:
Ivo Papasov, the Bulgarian wedding music/jazz genius, back in the States for the first time in years, along with Yuri Yunakov and some astounding friends. I've just been at the Boston concert and I am blown away. I've been a fan of the CDs for years, but live? LIVE? Man. These cats wail. These cats change meter, and they play so that people can dance. The singer is first-rate, as well.

Charming Hostess
time: 8:00p
location: Rm 54-100 (Green Bldg)
Performance from the female ensemble's new CD, "Sarajevo Blues" (Tzadik), which draws on Bosnian poetry of love and resistance, celebrating the triumph of the human spirit. In "Sarajevo Blues," Charming Hostess takes history and news as a context, but steers towards poetry as a way to focus on daily life under siege. Some songs explicitly speak of war, and others of cafe culture, underground sexuality, freedom and the nature of evil.The ensemble includes Katzenstein Lecturer Jewlia Eisenberg (see Sept 15) whose music is rooted in the body?voices and vocal percussion, handclaps and heartbeats, sex-breath and silence. "Charming Hostess makes music like no other? Thrown in with lively North African wedding songs and Eastern European folk songs are originals that display a proudly feminist, radical-Jewish, pro-sex sensibility," wrote the New York Times.

Kurt Weill Birthday Tribute
Saturday Mar. 4
8:00 PM
Curated by Anthony Coleman. Featuring Elysian Fields, Mark Anthony Thompson, Sanda, Shelley Hirsch, Doveman, Christina Courtin, Gina Leishman and the Main Squeeze Orchestra.
Kurt Weill, one of America's greatest composers, embraced myriad musical forms but found his greatest success in popular music and theater. Raised in Germany, the classically trained cantor's son developed dark, emotional and subversive social and political commentaries in collaboration with playwright Bertolt Brecht. Pianist Anthony Coleman and friends pay tribute to the man behind The Threepenny Opera and present modern takes on his seminal songs, including "Ballad of the Soldier's Wife," "Alabama Song," "Mack the Knife" and "Lost in the Stars."
This event will take place at the Tribeca Performing Arts Center, 199 Chambers Street.
Tickets are $20 in advance; $25 at the door.

Two great Israeli bands on one bill: Teapacks with their song “Push the Button” was Israel’s entry for the Eurovision contest. It raised a Brou-Ha-Ha by the European organizers, as it referred indirectly to Iran’s nuclear ambitions. The YouTube video featuring the hit song instantly was viewed by over a million people.
Teapacks is:
Kobi Oz – Lead Vocal
Gal Peremen – Bass & vocals
Rami Yosifov – Guitar & vocals
Moti Yosephe – Drums
Noaam Yankelevitch – Keyboards, accordion & vocals
Danny Aberjel – Guitar
Izabo’s music has been described as a “Brilliant, action packed combination of Psychedelic Rock, Disco, Punk and Arabic spices”, or, if we are to name-drop, like an unlikely cross between Led Zeppelin, the Talking Heads, and Om Koltom.
Spinning between sets is dj handler, the founder and director of Shemspeed, Modular Moods, an independent record label, and the Sephardic Music Festival. As the brains behind Modular Moods and many of the hyped parties in and around NYC, dj handler defies musical stereotypes.

The prophetic visions of Ezekiel are some of the most fascinating and vivid of all ancient texts. The traditional melodies used to chant them in the synagogue have been with us for ages, and serve as the inspiration for saxophonist Greg Wall’s Later Prophets. Featuring master percussionist and long time collaborator Aaron Alexander, seriously grooving bassist David Richards, and keyboards phenom Shai Bachar, the quartet manages to simultaneously straddle the gates of the ancient and avant-garde, while creating a musical experience that is as timeless as the texts themselves.

THE BREW: Dream Kitchen and Craig Ventresco, Meridith Axelrod & Rob Reich

1414 Walnut Street, Berkeley
Saturday, February 23, 8:00 pm
$10 members, $12 non-members
Buy tickets NOW!
Craig Ventresco, Meredith Axelrod, and Rob Reich fashion music utterly unconcerned with the modern era. Concentrating on early 20th century vaudeville, ragtime, and popular songs as recorded on obscure 78s from the dawn of the recorded music era, their sound travels backwards across time, pleasantly rumbling down the dirt roads of an America that once was.
Dream Kitchen presents a radical reevaluation of early Jazz, showing its roots in ragtime and folk music and its implications for improvisation. Compositions by Jelly Roll Morton, Louis Armstrong, and Duke Ellington are thrashed, trashed and smashed by a tuba-guitar-drums trio of John Schott, Marc Bolin, and John Hanes. The trio, whose members have won countless accolades in pretty much every musical genre, will also indulge in an investigation of the works of early Jewish Jazz composers.

It’s been five years, but “The Soul Of Gershwin” (formerly “Gershwin The Klezmer”) is back!
Vocalists Bruce Henry, Prudence Johnson, and Robert Marinoff, the band Klezmerica and Michael Paul Levin as George Gershwin join forces once again to bring to life the hit musical “The Soul Of Gershwin: The Musical Journey Of An American Klezmer.” This is a limited one-week eight-show engagement at the Parker Playhouse in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, Tuesday, March 4 through Sunday, March 9.
"A treasure-laden musical review … the sheer musicality is unbeatable … an incandescent tribute to the music of George Gershwin," —Jack Zink, Sun Sentinel.
"… works on so many levels one might have to see it twice," —Howard Cohen, Miami Herald
"… a rich discovery for us all" —Hap Erstein, Palm Beach Post.
You may know someone in Southern Florida who’d love to see this show, or to see it again. For more information, people are invited to visit soulofgershwin.com or call (954) 462-0222.

I am excited to announce the forthcoming release of my new CD, Yizkor: Music of Memory. It is an album of original settings of the prayers and psalms associated with Yizkor, the Jewish memorial service. It was recorded this past November with Hazzan Alberto Mizrahi and my group, The Afro-Semitic Experience. Although there have been a number of jazz artists who have written requiem and memorial pieces I am fairly certain that no one has ever written a jazz setting for the Yizkor service.
On August 20, at 7:00 p.m. we will be premiering the work at the historic Museum at Eldridge Street in the lower east side of Manhattan. This is going to be quite a concert. Hazzan Mizrahi will be coming to New York from his home in Chicago to join us for this performance. We will also be joined by our old friend, trumpeter Saskia Laroo, who is coming to New York from her home in Amsterdam. And Hazzan Jack Mendelson, my teacher and mentor in the ways of Hazzanut is also planning to sing some pieces with us and possibly a duet with Hazzan Mizrahi (he's coming from White Plains which is practically in New York!). I have the feeling that this is going to be a good night of music.
The address of the Museum at Eldridge Street is 12 Eldridge Street in New York City. If you are interested in tickets or for more information please call 212-219-0888 or visit their web site at www.eldridgestreet.org . I hope that you will join us for that performance.

Wild Bohemians Mardi Gras Parade on South Street
The next best thing to Bourbon Street
Sun, Feb 15, 2009, 1:30pm - 6:30pm
Start at Fat Tuesday's at 1:30pm
431 South Street
Philadelphia, PA
The WILD BOHEMIANS are celebrating their 25th year of bringing the sounds, dance, and raucous joy of Mardi Gras to Philadelphia.
Founded by Pete Gumbo, who also leads Philly Gumbo and Zydeco-a-Go-Go, the band’s repertoire consists of any and all music from Louisiana, including Cajun, Zydeco, Dixieland, Mardi Gras Street Music, Jazz, R&B, and a specialty the Bohemians called Swamp Stomp.
Each Mardi Gras the Wild Bohemians play to jubilant dancing audiences. The celebration includes a parade held on a Sunday afternoon before Mardi Gras (February 15th this year) featuring the band marching down South Street, trailed by costumed revelers, stopping in every bar along the route for a short set and a tall drink. Then on Mardi Gras night, Fat Tuesday (Feb 24th this year), the band blows the roof off the joint, bringing an uplifting and almost religious experience to their fans.
The band members are professional musicians who play in other bands and venues all year round, but wouldn't miss this date with The Wild Bohemians. The lineup at times, consists of over 20 players on stage.

SPIRIT OF JAZZ organise la venue en juin, pour la première fois à Paris, des deux fondateurs du collectif Afro-Semitic Experience : le contrebassiste David Chevan et le pianiste Warren Byrd.
Mélange de rythmes afro-américains et de mélodies hébraïques, la musique de David Chevan et Warren Byrd est l’aboutissement d’une histoire culturelle propre aux Etats-Unis. Quand le jazz rejoint la synagogue, cela donne un groupe chatoyant, riche et complexe qui illustre un dialogue et un vécu spécifiquement américains. A leur culture et leur pratique de musiciens de jazz se superpose un projet original, qui sait générer la méditation comme l'enthousiasme tout en évoquant les destins croisés des communautés américaines noire et juive américaines. Dans cette dynamique culturelle du prolongement et de la transmission, Warren Byrd et David Chevan construisent aussi un discours social qui affirme l’actualité d’une écoute entre les communautés, voire d’une synthèse qui aménage un espace commun tout en conservant les particularités de chacun. The Afro-Semitic Experience, créé en 1997, est un superbe et audacieux mélange de tradition juive et de bebop, de gospel et de musique synagogale.

Come out and see some of the city's top players lay down David's original sounds for the masses as part of this year's Canwest Cabaret Festival. When a team of musicians of this calibre unite, only good things can happen.
"Fiercely imaginative music that swaggers with volatile rhythms cushioning endlessly changing modes...an idiosyncratic, accessible gumbo...highly original, Buchbinder wields a mean trumpet and flugelhorn as well."

My name is Ben Holmes, I'm a trumpet player based in Brooklyn, NY. I've recently starting leading my own Klezmer/Eastern European/Jazz group called "the Lazarus Quartet".
Our repertoire draws heavily on the recorded works of Dave Tarras and Naftule Brandwein. We also perform material from the Bulgarian, Greek and Turkish musical traditions. My mission with the band is to present this music in a way that's reflective of my experiences as a Jazz musician living in New York, so there is a lot of improvisation and spontaneity on stage. The Lazarus Quartet is Ben Holmes (trumpet), Uri Sharlin (accordion), Dan Loomis (bass) and Jeff Davis (drums).

One of the most special New England events occurs not during the Fall leaf-gawking season, but in mid-July—starting today, in fact—when the National Yiddish Book Center opens its annual "Paper Bridge" festival, a week-long celebration of Yiddishkeit with lectures, workshops, film screenings, and of course, Jewish music new and old.
This year features two special exhibits, Mayer Kirshenblatt's paintings in a traveling exhibit titled: "They Call Me Mayer July" (so what more appropriate month!??). I am a major fan of the exhibit, and of his pictures, which capture life in pre-Holocaust Poland in a way that is both sweet and yet eschews the shmalzification of the period. Kirshenblatt's exhibit is balanced by a look at "Esn! Jews and Food in America. It's a hard combo to beat. [Off-topic, I note that the Jewish Women's Archive, where I work, has recently begun featuring regular guest blogs—is that an oxymoron?—on food and new kosher recipes. Yummy!
What matters most to KlezmerShack readers, of course, is that there will be music. Amazing music. New music. Tonight its Hankus Netsky's new ensemble, Branches, "… that uses Jewish musical tradition as a point of departure for creative exploration, performing repertoire drawn from klezmer, Yiddish theater, and cantorial traditions, along with new compositions and improvisations based on Yiddish poetry and other sources."

Jazz Talmud is a poetry and music project with Talmudic modes of dialogue, spontaneous interpretations, interruptions, arguing, and the ecstatic attempts at wisdom. The poems mimic Talmudic rhetoric, style and turns of phrase, as they reflect on the contemporary Jewish experience, jazz, dreams, loneliness and more. The horn players, acting as Talmud’s interpreters Rashi and Tosefot spontaneously riff on the spoken material and each other’s reaction to it.

7:30pm: Class on Ramchal’s (Rabbi Chaim Luzzato) ‘”Derech Hashem”
8:30pm: Later Prophets
Greg Wall’s Later Prophets, Tzadik recording artists, bring a highly literate Jewish sensibility to the forefront of jazz. Wall, has found the perfect partners in his bandmates keyboard wiz Shai Bachar, drummer extraordinaire Aaron Alexander, and the effervescent David Richards on bass. Together, they are able to simultaneously straddle the gates of the ancient and avant-garde. A leading figure in NY’s downtown music scene, “rabbi and fiery, eclectic Jewish-jazz luminary” (Time Out NY) Greg Wall was ordained in 2006 and may well be the only recording and touring jazz musician who is also a rabbi. His work is “a surprising multicultural collision worthy of Bill Laswell or Kip Hanrahan at their best,” noted Jon Andrews in DownBeat.

Jazz Talmud Quartet ft. Jake Marmer (voice), Greg Wall (sax), Rob Henke (trumpet), and Uri Sharlin (keys).
Jazz Talmud is a poetry and music project where poems mimic Talmudic rhetoric, style and turns of phrase, as they reflect on the contemporary Jewish experience, jazz, dreams, loneliness and more, while musicians,
acting as Talmud’s interpreters Rashi and Tosefot spontaneously riff on the spoken material and each other’s reaction to it.

8:30 PM - Later Prophets
Greg Wall’s Later Prophets, Tzadik recording artists, bring a highly literate Jewish sensibility to the forefront of jazz. Wall, has found the perfect partners in his bandmates keyboard wiz Shai Bachar, drummer extraordinaire Aaron Alexander, and the effervescent David Richards on bass. Together, they are able to simultaneously straddle the gates of the ancient and avant-garde. A leading figure in NY’s downtown music scene, “rabbi and fiery, eclectic Jewish-jazz luminary” (Time Out NY) Greg Wall was ordained in 2006 and may well be the only recording and touring jazz musician who is also a rabbi. His work is “a surprising multicultural collision worthy of Bill Laswell or Kip Hanrahan at their best,” noted Jon Andrews in DownBeat.

Hasidic New Wave
Sixth Street Synagogue
325 E. Sixth Street
New York, NY 10003
When five Downtown New York improvisers with deep roots in the jazz tradition embrace the Hasidic musical legacy and the scintillating rhythms of the holy land, a new voice emerges. Blending together an intense mixture of ethnic and cosmopolitan sounds, Hasidic New Wave fuses spiritual songs from Hasidic dynasties to funk and jazz, Arabic dances with avant-garde rock, and juxtaposes horas and freylekhs with sheer improvisation. Hasidic New Wave's alternatingly ecstatic and meditative performances, imbued (as is consistent with Hasidic tradition) with joy and passion, has led critics to liken the band to Sun Ra meets Jimi Hendrix at a Jewish wedding and exclaim HNW marries Hasidic music to avant-jazz, spinning traditional Jewish celebratory songs into extended Jazz improvisations that incorporate ferocious horn blowing and raucous electric guitar solos.

Masada Guitars Revisited:
In 1993 John Zorn began composing and performing his 208 tunes that now comprise Book I of the Masada songbook. The vast repertoire has been performed by a mind-blowing variety of ensembles and performers, including a 2003 CD entitled 'Masada Guitars,' featuring guitarists Marc Ribot, Bill Frisell and Tim Sparks. For the Tzadik Radical Jewish Culture Festival, Masada Guitars will be revisited by three guitarists of the younger Radical Jewish Culture generation: Pitom's Yoshie Fruchter, Edom's Eyal Maoz and Rashanim's Jon Madof.
Edom:
Eyal Maoz is a guitarist, bandleader and composer of great intensity and vision. His band Edom pushes Radical Jewish Culture to exciting new places with the addition of keyboard maniac Brian Marsella and Israeli drummer Yuval Lion. Tight, driving and intense, Hope and Destruction presents powerful Jewish rock instrumentals from a cutting edge guitarist who combines the harmonic lyricism of Bill Frisell with the angst and skronk of Marc Ribot.

More info:
www.dromnyc.com
Pianist and composer Roger Davidson's work in classical choral music, jazz, Brazilian music, and tango, introduces "On the Road of Life,"—a recording of original songs in klezmer style. Klezmer is an instrumental music tradition of the Ashkenazi Jews of Eastern Europe. It's a mostly festive music, originally performed for dancing at weddings and other joyful events. It shouldn't surprise then that for Davidson—born in Paris to a family with American, French, and German roots, raised in New York, and curious since childhood about the big world outside klezmer "might suggest both, honoring old bonds but also a world of possibilities."
On the Road to Life is not a traditional klezmer music recording. For Frank London, trumpeter, bandleader, and the album's arranger and producer. It represents the sound of klezmer distilled through Roger Davidson.

Members
Christopher Brooks, violin, is former concertmaster of Orquesta BĂ©tica FilarmĂłnica de Sevilla (Spain) and the Harrisburg Symphony, and violinist with the Susquehanna String Quartet. Brooks draws from deep classical and Jewish roots in his thoughtful and soulful improvisations.
Pete Bainbridge, bass â€viol, supports the ensemble with a solid harmonic and rhythmic foundation as well as offering tantalizing, free-ranging solos.
Jon Kunkle’s classically-trained and jazz-inspired electric guitar engoldens the sound of the ensemble, both while tastefully supporting the melody and during his elegant solos.
Dave Young has played drums with every important jazz musician in the region. Young has the rare ability to stitch an ensemble together, creating a whole much more than its parts.

Their unique sounds are incorporated into the compositions making a music that is a synthesis of electronic experimental, rock, jazz and neoclassical minimalism. The band is held together by Israeli born drummer Yonadav Halevy who is highly regarded in both funk/hip hop as well as jazz circles.

After many years of singing lush Ladino melodies, Ljuba Davis finally preserves her music in a timeless album, East and West (6/12/12). The Ljuba Davis Ladino Ensemble present their songs with little tugs of musical dominance, which differs from what most would envision as the typical Judaeo-Spanish style.
Led by bouzuki master, Avram Pengas, Davis' ensemble is made up of some of New York’s top Greek, Arab, and Jewish musicians. Their lush Middle-Eastern melodies beautifully compliment Davis' joyous, yet dynamic, voice with an acoustic richness. They will be performing at DROM in New York City on June 15th, 8pm.

Tickets: $15/13
Shirim’s legendary klezmer rendition of the Nutcracker is a brilliant cross-cultural achievement which is fun, serious and rocking all at once. They distill the classic ballet suite down to its folky essence and will change the way you think of Tchaikovsky forever. Emphasizing the Eastern European elements of the score with witty intelligence and playful irreverence, Shirim redefines the modern melting pot of "world music." Its overwhelming virtuosity in both the performance and musical conception harken back to the manic genius of Spike Jones' classical parodies and the artistry of Ellington's classic transcription.
Shirim has performed all over the U.S., Canada and Europe. They have collaborated with Maurice Sendak (Pincus & the Pig), Ellen Kushner (The Golden Dreydl) and played with the Philly Pops and on the soundtrack of Woody Allen’s “Deconstructing Harry.” They are traditional and new and alive at the same time. Come see them, you won’t regret it in this intimate venue. After over 25 years of playing, they are a Boston institution. Glenn Dickson, clarinet; Gary Bohan, trumpet; Michael Mclaughlin, accordion; Jim Gray, tuba; Eric Rosenthal, drums.

David (trumpet & vocals) & Roula (vocals, qanun and persuccion), partners in music and life, bring together worlds as they play Roma, Arabic and Jewish music along with David's original world jazz compositions. David is known as the leader of the Flying Bulgar Klezmer Band, the Odessa/Havana project, and his eponymous jazz ensemble. Between them, these projects have been nominated for 5 JUNOs, won one, and won a Canadian Folk Music Award. Roula has for many years been known as one of the city's most soulful Middle Eastern dancers, and has more recently stepped out as a lead vocalist, with Nomadica, her own Arabic project, and (this week) as a guest soloist at Soundstream's Koerner Hall concert. For this Musideum gig, David & Roula are accompanied by three up-and-comers, Demetri Petsalakis, oud & guitar, R.J. Satchithnanthan bass & trombone and Jaash Singh, percussion.

Description:
9Volt, the avantgarde, jazz-based New York City trio who recently released Open Circuit, perform a record release show on Feb. 19 at Konceptions at Korzo. The outfit features a collection of New York's brightest
underground jazz players including trombonist Rick Parker, guitarist EyalMaoz and drummer Yonadav Halevy. All About Jazz said Parker is a "powerful young jazz musician to be reckoned with," adding "Parker and his band are the best-kept secret in New York right now." John Zorn described Maoz as "a cutting edge guitarist who combines the harmonic lyricism of Bill Frisell with the angst and skronk of Marc
Ribot... keep your eyes and ears on this guy." Halevy toured with Arnie Lawrence's band for six years and has been a widely coveted session player performing with Sheila Jordan, Joel Frahm and Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings. Tim Berne guests on the album and will perform with 9Volt on Feb. 19.
Open Circuit, the trio's debut album, was recently released via OutNow Recordings. NYC Jazz Record described the album as "a synthesis of many things that define powerful 'new' music - electronics and other sound elements, very free improvisation and the passion of the world of rock." Open Circuit is now streaming via OutNow Recordings' BandCamp .

Beit Chaverim Synagogue of Westport
85 Post Rd West
Westport, CT
This new series at Rabbi Greg Wall's Beit Chaverim synagogue in Westport, CT, will present exciting performances by the most cutting-edge performers in Jewish music today.
Led by guitarist and composer Ty Citerman, Bop Kabbalah plays rhythÂmic, dynamic and lyriÂcal music that takes some of the lanÂguage of klezmer, modal nigÂguÂnim, jazz, and 21st cenÂtury conÂcert music…and then twists and reconÂtexÂtuÂalÂizes it. It’s not really what you’d hear in most synÂaÂgogues or at most wedÂdings, but of course, those aren’t the only places to hear JewÂish music!
with:
Ty Citerman - guitar
Ben Holmes - trumpet
Ken Thomson - bass clarinet

Ninet Tayeb was first introduced to the music scene when she was only 19 years old after winning the flagship season of the Israel’s version of “Pop Idol” in 2003. Becoming a household name overnight, Tayeb’s career grew into what many critics have hailed as a wild Cinderella story phenomena, as Ninet who was still living with her parents in the country at the time- decided to pick up her guitar and begin exploring the music scene in Tel Aviv. Ninet’s debut album was released in 2006, selling Platinum in less than 24 hours- charting no less than 5 singles that became instant number one hits on national radio through out the country. Her second album, written and produced by Ninet herself was released in 2009, again receiving overwhelming critical success. In 2012 “Sympathetic Nervous System”, Ninet’s first album in English was released in Israel receiving amazing reviews and was followed by a successful tour across Country. Not resting, Only a year later, Ninet’s 4th album saw light “All the Animals Knew”, again Ninet earning beautiful response from Radio, Media and fans. Now Days while touring for over a year with her latest album Ninet is working on her 5th and looking into an international carrier.
Yula Beeri is an Israeli, ex-punk icon, vocal powerhouse, and all around musical savant, sinking her dainty teeth into punk cabaret, infectious dance pop, poignant rock opera, and a haunting a cappella ensemble.

Following the success of Klezmokum’s “Old & New Gold” project in synagogues and culture centers in 2011-12 in the Netherlands, we now follow up this project with “Klez-Evergreens” which is a compilation of some of our best instrumental material over our 24 years of existence. Several of these pieces have been performed often but not recorded: some of the best repertoire not only of Klezmokum, but our instrumental subsidiaries: Klez-Edge and Klez-thetics. The music was/is quite accessible or popular with our audiences and will include the following: Klezmer traditional dance (freylekh) type pieces: Varshaver Freylekhs, , Sherele, and another klez-classic in a Balkan-style arrangement: Ketsad M’rakdin. From the great Chassidic literature will be Chassidic Song, Zhuritze Chlopotzi, and Dance of Safad. From the Klez-Edge recording on Tzadik Records: Oy Joy, and from our first Klezmokum CD (1992: Dedication. Also included are A Cozy Winter Veggy Soup from our Klez-thetics recoding (2003), and (from the classic film:) the poignant Theme from Schindler’s List. And finally.. a surprise twist: a lovely piece by the great jazz pianist/composer John Lewis that uses the Magen Abot Jewish mode scale..(Come to one of the concert to find out what it is!) The public is welcome to come for any of these concerts.

295 Treadwell St.
Hamden, CT
Ten years ago the Afro-Semitic Experience recorded a CD, The Days of Awe, that is still one of our most popular and best selling. The rehearsals and the performances to get ready for those recording sessions helped to shape us as a band and it was really a watershed period for us. Most of the music on the album were arrangements based upon my transcriptions of cantorial pieces by the legendary Yossele Rosenblatt.
We will be celebrating the 10th anniversary of that CD on Wednesday, September 17 with a performance at the Outer Space in Hamden, CT. We’ll play the music from that CD plus some music from our newest recording, Jazz Souls on Fire.
That evening we will also celebrate the birthday of our percussionist, Abu Alvin Carter, Sr. who will turn 73 the very next day.
Music begins at 7 pm and we’ll play till about 9 pm or so. There is no admission charge, but we will be passing the hat and selling CDs.
The Outer Space is located at 295 Treadwell Street in Hamden, CT. For more information the web site for the Outer Space is www.theouterspace.net
This should be a memorable night of music and I hope you can make it,

Inspecteur Épingle
4051 rue Saint-Hubert,
Montreal, Quebec H2L 4A7
Composer, producer, pianist, vocalist and harmonica player Jason Rosenblatt is one of the world’s foremost harmonica innovators. His performance on the unassuming instrument has helped to open new musical ground for the instrument long associated with “the blues,” into art forms as diverse as jazz, bluegrass, klezmer and Turkish music. His latest project consisting of original jazz, blues and ragtime compositions is gritty but performed with good humour. Jason is joined by master of all things string Joe Grass (guitar), Joel Kerr (bass) and Evan Tighe (Drums).

2nd Annual Hanukkah Extravaganza at the Outer Space featuring the Spies of the Balkans and friends
Just in time for Hanukkah!
Wednesday, December 9, 2015, 7pm (Dreydl spin-off is at 7:30)
Outer Space
295 Treadwell Street
Hamden, Connecticut
The Spies of the Balkans will be hosting our second annual Hanukkah Extravaganza featuring Klezmer, Hanukkah songs, special guests, a dreydl spinoff as well as latkes from the Kitchen and Kosher craft beer at Hamden's own Outer Space.
The Outer Space has a great menu and it’s always fun to have a dinner concert. And Steve Rodgers has told me that the latkes (which sold out early last year) will be back.
In the spirit of the season there’s no admission charge for this event (though the band may pass the hat).
The Spies of the Balkans is a musical configuration shrouded in enigma and mystery. Reputedly the group plays music from Eastern Europe with a mix of Klezmer, jazz and good grooves. Led by a mysterious shadow figure the group interprets documents known as "scores" and turns them into sound. Curious? Frightened? So is the NSA. Come hear the band that no one will admit on record to knowing anything about.

The first set begins at 6:30 and the second will start around 8:30. Chris and I have been playing together since the early days of Bassology at the Old Charlie B's in downtown New Haven. He's a super in the pocket groove player with a great harmonic and melodic sensibility. I always have a blast getting down with him and I hope you will join us for one or both of the sets. And if you're a musician you're welcome to bring your instrument and sit in during the second set.
Who is Manny Blanc?—theremin edition
Thu, September 4th 10 pm
Barbès
376 9th St.
Brooklyn, NY 11215
WHO IS MANNY BLANC? will be celebrating the music and aesthetic of this little known dynamic 60's New York musician and arranger. This edition will feature the notable discoverer of the lost Blanc recordings, Adam O'Callaghan, on the rare Moog (console) theremin. Our Québécois thereminist will be helping us re-interpret the music from Mr. Blanc's obscure yet astonishing LP released in the early 60's called "Jewish Jazz". Exotica meets futurist jazz, meets proto-surf - from double electric guitars to harmonica driven duck-call dialogue to theremin. The LP is one of the earliest attempts at putting klezmer melody in a jazz and groovy out-there context.
The band features some of NY's finest klezies:
Matt Darriau - reeds,
Adam O'Callaghan - theremin and reeds
Avi Fox-Rosen - guitar
Yoshie Fruchter - guitar
Ari Folman Cohen - bass
Chris Stromquist - drums

Applying Chicago’s jazz world to the performance style of the middle of the century New York Yiddish theatre, old standards, and Sephardic and Klezmer songs, Schmaltz! rubs songs like And the Angels Sing and Bei Mir Bis du Schoen to a fresh patina with their total of over 150 years of music experience. Rebecca Toon's sensuous vocal and interpretive brilliance is sandwiched between her bright smile and her wickedly fun wit and humor. Henry Meisels sings tenor opera and the Jewish repertoire in ChickenFat Orchestra. There is no charge to attend, but this is the residents' dinner concert. You are welcome and might feel more comfortable ordering a drink and/or a dinner (they're good!).

David Chevan, with Will Bartlett on sax, Jesse Chevan on drums and Warren Byrd on keyboards. What’s so special about this concert? Well, glad you asked, it will feature original compositions and arrangements by Will Bartlett, the unsung hero of so many of my projects over the past 20+ years. Will is a founding member of Bassology, the Afro-Semitic Experience and he has played in the Nu Haven Kapelye and many other one off projects. So, in my mind it’s about time we listen to some of his music played by some people who really know it. So, this one is going to be a rollicking evening of creative fun without a doubt.

I will be playing at the jazz brunch at the Elm City Market with my group Bassology. For this performance, I’ll be joined by Warren Byrd on piano, Saskia Laroo on trumpet and Jesse Chevan on drum set. Music begins at 10:30 and goes till 1:30 p.m. Also, musicians are welcome to bring their instruments and sit in. Come on down to get some groceries, eat some brunch and dig some sounds.
The Afro-Semitic Experience will mark its 20th anniversary by sharing our music at an interfaith service to celebrate and honor the memory of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

This is the synagogue where we first started our project twenty years ago. This year is Rabbi Herbert Brockman’s last year leading the service as he will be retiring from Mishkan Israel in June. So this is a service that will be emotional and intense on many levels as Rabbi Brockman has always served as a beacon for social justice in the New Haven area and while we welcome change, in this case it will be bittersweet. The service is at 7:30 pm, but we will be giving a short pre-service concert beginning at 7:00 p.m. I hope you can join us for the entire evening as it sure to be one filled with hope and tears.

We're teaming up with our old friend, cantor Martin Levson for a special Friday night service with some new music, some interesting arrangements, and our sermon in song. If you haven't been to one of our services you're in for a treat, they're not your typical Sabbath service, I can assure you.
