Dear Lorin,
Whooaaa! The Klezmatics are fantastic--everybody knows that! On our
website, I tried to give a feel (in a humorous way) for the fact that the type
of klezmer we play is more traditional--that's all. And the only "klezmer
pledges" which I seriously make are two, both facets of our obligation of
tikkun
olam: to try to increase people's joy through our music, and to help support
Israel and the Jewish people in whatever ways we can.
