Metropolitan Klezmer's eight-piece exquisite fun-time cadre embraces tradition while playing against stereotype. The stellar octet shifts effortlessly from rollicking to ethereal to hard-swinging. Enjoy vintage Yiddish soundtrack tango, genre-bending originals, savory folk frolics, & songs of love & protest, with a delightfully variegated instrumental array & an exuberant sweep of cultural influence (Latin to Greek to Arabic & beyond). In naming the band's latest release, Surprising Finds, to their Top 30 Worldbeat list, the UK’s Phat Planet praised MK's “brilliant, breathless” music for its ”humour & style”: “Celebrating the vibrant & living tradition that is klezmer -serious, melancholy, exhilarating, & funny by turns... mixing levity amongst the gravity."
