The Jewish traditional music of Klezmer is quickly regaining popularity -
rightly so. Only shortly after Michael Tilson Thomas announced his personal
visit down Memory Lane with "Thomaskefskys Music and Memories of a Life in
the Yiddish Theatre", Jack Säuberli is leading it into a bright new future.
Säuberli (English speakers are advised to not even try to pronounce his
name) is a Swiss composer, arranger and - as you might have guessed - fan
with a mission. His idea is to present Klezmer as played by Symphonic Brass
Orchestras, blending the old with the new and spicing things up in an
unexpected way. On his homepage, you can listen to all titles of a CD
encompassing a wide range of titles and order sheet music to start playing
the stuff with your friends. And judging from what we heard, that promises
to be a lot of fun!
