Though living in London England ,originally from Thessaloniki Greece.I am totaly Sephardi and love our Ladino songs and music.But I also deeply do feel and love klezmer.Only knowing very little yiddish at the present,I intend to learn more in London.Shalom aliechem ! To all.
This is a miracle..... i've been searching for this brand of music for several years - ten to be exact. I only heard a tiny fraction of it in a John Tams song. not identical but very very close - maybe more tambourine in his. it made me think of gypsies with just a tinge of old rag time. I was enthralled. it just sounded so fun. but i had no idea what the style was called to begin looking for more. I finally had to give up... only to have it just randomly appear on my feed this morning. i don't even know why i opened that video. i guess it called to me. anyway, found it! sure hope my family doesn't mind 😁
Clarinet is indeed the king of this music style. In other words, Clarinet is the soul of Klezmer. Some times other instruments shall leading but I think Clarinet has the more influential and suggested timber, dynamic, range, power, and expression.
it s crazy and wonderfull that this form of the clarinette playing is prevalent also through the whole of the Balkans from Greece up to Romania and basically a big piece of slavic countries... it s like i m hearing greek music... Klezmer sounds incedibly familiar to greek / balkanic ears... HAJDE !!!!!
Many people notice the similarities between Klezmer music and Greek and Near Eastern music. Yale Strom writes in “The Book of Klezmer” - “one of the three major sources that created the Klezmer’s core dance repertoire was Greco Turkish dance music”. He goes on to explain traveling Jewish musicians learned tunes from fellow Rom (“Gypsy”) traveling musicians. East European Jewish music drew from all sorts of local musical styles
Klezmer, Balkan, Gipsy, rebetiko, they all originated from Byzantium and the minor Asia where Greeks, Armenians, Gypsies, Jews and Turks all lived together. It expanded in the Balkans and after the fall if Ottoman Empire and the flee of Greeks from minor Asia it went worldwide. Gipsy guitar swing and Jewish swing were spread all over the world. It is not a coincidence that modern greek swing bands make covers of rebetiko songs into swing all the time.
It reminds you of Romanian music because klezmer is a conglomeration of sounds from the Balkans (in turn influenced by the long Ottoman rule), Eastern Europe, and Gypsy music. In music, everybody borrows from everyone else.
For a long time I had been wanting yo know the name of this style of music and today (25 Nov 2020) I finally learned it is called klezmer. I love love love it 💃💖💖💖

What amazes me is the traces of makam/middle eastern music, which was of course shared by all peoples, turks persians arabs armenians assyrians and jews ofcourse, they have preserved melody types and formulas and modes :o
I would say that the proximity of Eastern Europe to the Caucasus and Middle East is what affected the style of Jewish music there. Klezmer is a style that developed in Eastern Europe under many influences, it doesn't have ancient Jewish roots. Western European Jewish music, both Ashkenazi and Sephardic show no Middle Eastern influences.
Moldova and part of Hungary were in the Ottoman Empire for quite a while... A good reference (if not the best) is Zev Feldman's book. He has an appendix about modality in klezmer music, with comments about the awareness of Turkish Makam in Klezmer Music www.worldcat.org/title/klezmer-music-history-and-memory/oclc/975259347&referer=brief_results
@@megazekemeister Greek, bulgarian, romanian stuff and even russian, where western meets eastern. Greeks uses some makam(modes) but adapt some of these modes to equal tempered(without quarter tones) for using harmonies together with them. Basically eastern europe combines european music with some oriental influence added to the mix. In the case of Klezmer they use a lot of Hijaz( phrygian with a major 3th instead) and Nikriz also known as Romanian minor (is like a dorian but with augmented 4th) the augmented forth gives a very mystic, spooky sound to this mode. Greeks and bulgarians uses a lot more different combinations.
every other day I find something like this and I am like why has no one shown me this before!!? this is cool! The old continent has nice artistic cultures!
Inspiring. To say the least! This is going to make me actually pick up my clarinet and re-learn. I've been threatening to do for some time and this could well do it. So beautiful, the full range of expression and emotion. Wow!
Sha Sha Di Shviger Kumt was also sung by the Stoliner Khasidim. I learned it as a child and in the "gig" book of a Stoliner klezmer he titled the tune "Stoliner Skotshne."
Un fel de mai multe feluri, foarte simpatic și plăcut urechii. La a doua interpretare am sesizat și o asemănare cu un cântec românesc: "Nu-ți pare rău când vezi că plâng..." Ascult în continuare,cine știe ce mai descopăr. Oricum, e o nebunie frumoasă iar interpreții sunt profesioniști. Sper din suflet sa fie și români în orchestră și să nu uite de unde au plecat. Succes!

I've thought that for a long time. Klezmer clarinet is uniquely expressive and soulful.

Right. Klezmer, I must add, is a nice to hear music, full of spirit.
Gypsy music, too. Jewish klezmorim toured with Gypsy musicians playing at each other's weddings.
Makes sense to me !!! There is quite a few transitional form's of music 🎵 🎶.🤠🤔
Not to forget strong Ukrainian and Romanian influences
@@echerlin we gypsies,are ascesontors of jews not from indians i am gipsy and 90% of gipsyes are white and in our traditions are exactly like jews!
We’re playing klezmer music for my wind ensemble and being the only clarinet this was my homework. And I must say I’m impressed
Klezmer tunes are great in conveying the atmosphere, the mood. You can’t help but dance, laugh, cry...
I am currently writting an essay about klezmer and I thought why not to listen to some while writting, and I must say it is amazing! I love it

I know that what I say doesn't has anything to do with what you wrote, but I love the yoshke, yoshke song interpreted by dobranots from Ukraine
I would totally read your essay 😍
I loooove klezmer music.
The music reminds me of Romanian folk music...I played that with my music band for 13 years, and I'm currently busy with it.🎼🎸😀

Thank you to Chicago Klezmer Ensemble, this week's challah rose higher than usual...much love my brothers & sister
Every instrument is not just played well, it is felt by anyone who cares to move along with it.
I love the way klezmer has that lovely shambling sway to it. It just feels powerful in a way, it's awesome!
It's sad with a touch of hope.
@@brianthomas4934 With ultimate hope
I am fascinated by Jewish culture and this stuff is the icing on the cake, The emotion and feeling, its profound.

Same situation bro 😂
This is just what I was looking for. Not the cheap pop versions one encounters often times, but serious klezmer one can truly enjoy.
The tension in this music is amazing. How the clarinettist bends the notes...
❤❤
Love your music.
Love from The Netherlands 💙💬❤
Bella musica, beautiful music... especially the first song 🎵
This music is so beautiful and I love that its bringing everyone together in the comments. No prejudice, just respect. Its joyous to see. 💜

This music just has something majestic about it that makes it so refreshing
In times of need we stand with Israel
After listening кlezmer always it seems that in life all will be good...
I hear Roma, Turkish, Spanish, Greek influence but most of all the unique Jewish sound I really feel it 💗💗💗🤗
And also some older local Balkan influence.
Clearly The Gold Standard for Klezmer......BRAVI TUTTI from Acapulco!
I’m Dave Tarras’s great grandson and I approve of this
Thank the Lord someone records this shizz, absolutely heart-lifting. Bless you.
Excellent groupe 👌💯❤️

J’adore la musique klezmer, elle est tellement entraînante. Ça donne envie de prendre des cours de clarinette
Avez vous pris des cours de clarinette???
Fascinating music! As a Ukrainian, I can hear some similarities with Ukrainian folk music, but Klezmer is nonetheless so distinctive.
Класс!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This makes me very happy when I hear it. 🕯️
I'm a non-denominational Christian, but I love Jewish music.
Music brings us all together because it bypasses the intellect and goes straight to the soul.
Shalom, shalom. Thank you.

Maybe, but it's also because these guys really know how to play it.
