A novelty as yet unheard of
To the present day, few if not to say no Klezmer themes have been adapted or produced for brass bands the world over.
A few publishers have released Jewish song themes in form of medleys. But the typical Klezmer themes from the Balkans and Eastern Europe, which have been passed on to the emigrated Eastern Jews, which have such fascinating rhythms and the harmonisation typical for the East, have so far been missing from the repertoire of brass bands.
It looks as though, until now, one believed that the tunes, which are usually played ad lib, can only develop properly in small formations of 3 to 8 musicians. The present production
KLEZMER FOR BRASS''N''WOOD shows that this is not the case…
KLEZMER FOR BRASS''N''WOOD - A very special production
This Klezmer production has been produced by the Swiss Klezmer aficionado, composer and arranger Jack Säuberli. The recodings were made by Walter Fölmli, sound and mixing, in collaboration with the wind section of the Russian Chamber Philharmonics of St. Petersburg, conducted by the well-known Russian conductor Juri Gilbo. Other Swiss soloists, such as Willi Valotti (Accordion), Mario Schubiger (Percussion), Walter Alder (dulcimer), Heinz Della Torre (Alphorn) and Paul Knotek (Saxophone) gave these lovely titles their final touch.
