European jazz: a mix of Klezmer/Balkan jazz with semi-serious classical elements. We've put his stuff in World before, but this has a definite NYC jazz flavor, with guest stars including Erik Friedlander (cello) and Chris Speed (clarinet) in the band.

1- Folky, almost Irish/Gaelic. Midtempo and upbeat, strong melody
2- Female vocals. Slow, pretty; would be good at weddings
3- Happy rolling folk piece. Sparse avant-jazz intro and middle.
4- Slow and pretty, with a fast trumpet solo
5- Mysterious Euro-folk dance, slowish
6- Mid/fast Balkan romp, like a louder version of the band Pachora
7- Slow, happy
8- Midtempo; a peaceful cool-down
