Upcoming Tzimmes Concerts



Dear Friends,

Tzimmes, an eclectic Jewish Music Ensemble from Vancouver, will be in the
East to give two concerts in early May. The details follow.

May 3, 1997 - Aberdeen (aka. Matawan), NJ, at the Temple Shalom; 5
Ayrmont Lane, Info: 908-566-2621. Concert begins at 8:30pm.
May 4, 1997 - Corning, N.Y., as part of the Marquette Internationale
Festival; Info: 607-936-4647. Concert begins at 2:00pm.

The Tzimmes style ranges from Klezmer to Sephardi to Middle Eastern to Folk
to Worldbeat. And we sing in several languages - Hebrew, Yiddish, Ladino,
and English. 

Of our album, 'A Lid for Every Pot', _Dirty Linen_ (April/May '96 #63), had
this to say:
           "On this,  their  second recording,  Vancouver's  contribution to the
revival in ethnic Jewish  music continues
with  beautiful renditions of a panoply of sounds. Delicately balancing an
understated  musicianship with a love for their heritage, Tzimmes  cranks
out songs  that cover  a  variety of times  and  places. A romantic serenade
in  Ladino, the Judeo-Spanish  dialect spoken  for centuries by Sephardic
Jews; a  Klezmer tune  from  long-ago Russia;  contemporary folk tunes  and
Middle Eastern  rhythms  from Israel; traditional melodies  associated  with
religious practice - it's all
here, transcending continents and centuries." (ES)

If you're in the area, come and enjoy these 'many faces' of Jewish Music
with us.

All the best,

Moshe Denburg
Band Leader
