The Klezmorim - Metropolis
Review by Mokhadi Modjadji
Klezmorim's album, Metropolis, is a mesmerizing collection of traditional klezmer tunes with a modern twist. The band's masterful musicianship and innovative arrangements create a unique sound that is both timeless and contemporary.
The album's title track, "Metropolis," sets the tone for the rest of the album with its dynamic rhythm and intricate melodies. "Odessa Bulgar" and "Bessarabian Hora" showcase the band's ability to seamlessly blend different styles of music, while "Yiddish Blues" adds a soulful touch to the album.
The standout track is undoubtedly "Der Gasn Nigun," a hauntingly beautiful piece that showcases the band's virtuosity and emotional depth. The album closes with the lively and upbeat "Hora Midor Lador," leaving listeners with a sense of joy and energy.
