This eclectic collection celebrates the latest klezmer sounds, ranging from the reinterpretation of classic Yiddish lyrics to completely new texts, using non-traditional instruments, or no instruments at all. The Rough Guide to Klezmer Revolution departs from the concept of klezmer as solely Yiddish, or even Jewish music, inventing a new thrilling genre that has very little in common with the klezmer music of the 19th century. Welcome to the Klezmer Revolution!
