Meet Klezmer-ish, four incredibly outward-looking musicians who met as members of the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra.
Drawing inspiration from the music of bygone travellers, the instrumental quartet – featuring double bass, piano accordion, guitar, clarinet, violins, viola and woodwind at various times – explore the music brought by immigrants from different cultural backgrounds who left their homelands in pursuit of a different life.
From rip-roaring klezmer and dynamic tango via Kurdish and Balkan tunes to self-penned gypsy jazz, Klezmer-ish bring a trademark twist and exceptional virtuosity to whatever genre takes their fancy. It’s a seamless musical journey, always on the move.
Klezmer-ish pay a special return visit to artsdepot to launch “Echoes Across Borders” – a new album featuring a vibrant new klezmer-inspired arrangement of Weinberg’s “Rhapsody on Moldavian Themes” by composer Michael Csányi-Wills. Experience a live performance of this piece and more, with Michael joining us as our guest of honour for a special Q&A session about his creative journey!
