Tzimmes Concerts

[moshe denburg <denburg...>]

Dear Friends,

Tzimmes, a Jewish Worldbeat Band from Vancouver, will be in Denver and
Seattle at the end of June. The details follow:

June 26, 1997 - Denver, Colorado; at the JCC, at 7:00pm; for info. Tel.
303-399-2660

June 29, 1997 - Seattle, Washingtom; at the Temple Beth Am, at 7:00pm; for
info. Tel. 206-525-0915

Original in concept and sound, the Tzimmes style ranges from Klezmer to
Sephardi to Middle Eastern to Folk, with songs in four languages - Hebrew,
Yiddish, Ladino, and English. Our first two albums, 'Sweet and Hot' and 'A
Lid for Every Pot', have received many excellent reviews and airings,
including a spot on National Public Radio's 'All Things Considered' with
Robert Siegel (in the U.S.), and on the CBC's Gabereau Show, with Vicki
Gabereau.

Over the years, Tzimmes has concertized in Canada, the U.S., Mexico, and
England, at Folk Festivals and Communal Events, for Jewish and non-Jewish
audiences alike.

Of our album, 'A Lid for Every Pot', _Dirty Linen_  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)

We'd love to see you there,
