Maxwell Street Klezmer Band
OLD ROOTS NEW WORLD
At the time of this CD's release, Chicago's Maxwell St. Klezmer Band closes in on two decades of music-making, the heartland's most high-profile purveyor of the brash, energetic, almost jazz-like music of the traveling Jewish musicians---the beloved "klezmorim" (Yiddish for "musicians") of Europe and later the New World. Inveterate entertainers and tradesmen, the klezmer bands fulfilled the musical needs of any non-liturgical event: wedding parties, theatrical productions, and much more. The tradition lives, and few have brought the old music to more enthusiastic audiences than the much-traveled MSKB. Treat yourself to some of today's finest klezmer music!
