Re: What is Klezmer ?



In a message dated 97-09-12 05:42:02 EDT, you write:

<< Yeah, I figure, maybe we'll hear songs like "Bei mir bist du shein"
 and "and the angels sing"! (Both non-klezmer that emerged from
 the pre-revival klezmer scene) >>


Ari -

Maybe not Bei Mir,   but "....angels sing" surely is rooted in Klezmer.

Ziggy Elman took a Klezmer tune and arranged it into the big band tune.

Check out Kammen Book #1  song #15, I believe.
