  • Description

    126 strings used to be the standard setting for a klezmer band: one cimbalom, two fiddles, one cello and one double bass. These days this setting is rarely found, especially with an all-female group. Di Fidl-Kapelye are the exception. The five string wizards have various musical backgrounds - classical music, pop and theatre to name a few - and they have worked with people like Alan Bern, Michael Alpert and Frank London from the Klezmatics. Initially the group performed mainly traditional klezmer music but their many contacts have inspired them to now broaden their horizons. Thus they came up with the idea of asking trumpet players to compose new music for their klezmer string ensemble. Tracks: Broccoli Bulgar / Pera Palas / Skotchne / Honga Elongata / Hartsklap / Simkha's Toreh / Volekh; Bulgorski Zhek / Opshpil For Di Mekhutonim / Kolomeika / Moldavian Bulgars / Tish Nign / Kolodobre / Shaleshudes / Sirba; Left Foot Sirba / Faith Hora.
