FREILACH Kleztory & I Musici de Montreal composer and arranger Airat Ichmouratov In this video, we'll be playing some klezmer music! If you're a fan of Jewish music, then this is definitely a video you don't want to miss. Klezmer is a genre of Jewish music that has a lot of historical significance. In my videos, we'll be playing some of the most popular klezmer tunes and seeing how they're performed. If you're a fan of Jewish music, then be sure to check out this and other my videos! Klezmer is a musical tradition that parallels Hasidic and Ashkenazic Judaism. Originating in the villages and ghettos of Eastern Europe, where nomadic Jewish musicians known as “klezmorim” performed at weddings and other celebrations, klezmer music has been played from the early middle ages until the beginning of the twentieth century. Klezmer music currently enjoys tremendous popularity and has been undergoing a true revival since the 1980s. Similar to the music they perform, KLEZTORY is a rich mosaic of cultures (Russian, Canadian, Quebecois) musical training (academic and self-taught), and musical tastes (classical, contemporary, jazz, blues, country and folk). Combining their talents, these musicians perform with emotion and virtuosity that is the true spirit of klezmer. Through the use of innovative arrangements that are respectful of the original compositions, KLEZTORY has forged a unique and yet authentic musical path. #klezmer #freilach #clarinet #kleztory #ichmouratov #klezmermusic #klezmerclarinetist #freylakh
