Klezmer
Call for Demo
"The Hottest Source for Klezmer" -SF Chronicle.
The Klez X (formerly The San Francisco Klezmer Experience) is in the
vanguard of new Jewish music. The Klez-X mines the rich depths of
klezmer, Yiddish folk and art song, and modern jazz to create a
brilliantly original sound, still rooted in the bedrock of Yiddish
culture. Based in the SF Bay-Area, the birthplace of the 1970's klezmer
revival and home to one of the country's most progressive and fertile
music scenes, the Klez-X boasts an all-star roster of highly versatile
and innovative musicians.

 Mirasaki
Jazz Ensemble
Japanese Jazz
The Murasaki Ensemble is a musical experience of sounds unlike any
other---elements of traditional Far Eastern subtleties, Near Eastern and
Latin American rhythms with improvisational jazz converging, producing a
sound that is extremely vibrant and innovative yet still familiar.
The Ensemble’s sound is built upon a sound which reaches the inner spirit
and a unique ability to combine traditional instruments in exciting ways.
Intricate Egyptian riqq (tambourine), Arabic tabla, Latin congas and
bongos with the jazzy sounds of upright bass and acoustic guitar,
providing a framework for the group’s musical explorations while Japanese
koto and silver flute add texture, punctuating the rhythm with enticing
melodies.
