This collection of traditional klezmer tunes and new pieces from the current klezmer scene offers a cross-section of the impressive variety and beauty of this music. It reaches from the oriental-influenced Arabertantz (Dance ofthe Arabs) to the melancholic, yet hopeful Ojfn Pribetschik by Mark Warchawsky. The pieces in this book appear in order of increasing difficulty and key. May they open a window to a time full of happiness and melancholy!
