---Praise for 'Mit der kale tantsn'---
"This recording is in the true sense a record of a unique event - and for
those not lucky enough to have been at the concert itself, it offers a
wonderful introduction to the musical world of Khupe." Alan Bern
"Khupe [...], with their high standards and virtuosity, demonstrate how good
klezmer music made in Germany can be. [...] An exceptional album with the
acoustic of a chamber music hall." www.klezmer.de
"Live klezmer music of the finest sort [...] tremendously soulful,
heart-captivating intensity [...] The last surprise is the outstanding
audio quality [...] Those wishing to bring pure joy of life into their
homes are best served with this CD." Bremer
"It's an entirely likeable and very-well played traditional album, with nice
liner notes by Alan Bern [...] I like them for playing a traditional
repertoire, but doing so in a way that places them in our time and place
[...] This is also a live recording, and one that features the warmth that
a live recording can offer, and which proves that the skill in the playing
is not a studio fluke." www.klezmershack.com
