Metropolitan Klezmer + Los Mas Valientes
Wednesday, April 21
Makor, 35 W. 67 St (CPW/Columbus), NYC  
www.makor.org   212.601.1000
8:00pm  Metropolitan Klezmer
9:30pm  Los Mas Valientes 
doors open at 7:30pm, just $12 for both bands

Soulful virtuosity meets free-ranging fun in two female-led eight-piece bands.
MetroKlezmer shares this Upper West evening with their Latin jazz 
counterparts, 
Los Mas Valientes, whose latest CD spent 10 months on Latin Beat's hit 
parade!  
Drummer Eve Sicular leads the decade-strong Metropolitan Klezmer, 
while flutist Jessica Valiente is the driving force behind the versatile LMV. 
Gorgeously arranged traditionals, classic originals, and plenty of dance 
beats... 
This is a double bill we've been looking forward to for a long time, 
what's not to enjoy?  Great tunes -- all ages --  one low price -- no 
minimum! 
Rick Faulkner (trombone) & Debra Kreisberg (clarinet/sax) grace both groups.
Full bar & gourmet kosher menu available, swanky club in a brownstone.

Thanks again to everyone who came to our tenth anniversary show at Tonic!
More surprises this time too; and as far as we know,
