Metropolitan Klezmer's music 
"... ranges from dignified, small ensemble, Old World-style horas to jazzy, 
frenetic, big-band style tunes. The playing as always is top-notch, 
particularly ... Pam Fleming's trumpet and Eve Sicular's drums. The group 
subtly twists some tunes rhythmically and contextually, and Deborah Karpel's 
vocals boast a natural allure so hot it ought to be licensed, taxed and 
regulated." 
- SETH ROGOVOY, author of The Essential Klezmer

"embraces the protean, polyglot character of klezmer ....
mixing equal parts authenticity and creativity."
-ROB TAUBE, Our Town

Hope to see you there,  
Eve Sicular
