Klezwoods is a Boston-based amalgam of strings, horns, and percussion that melds the spirit of traditional klezmer and balkan music with modern grooves, improvisation and East coast attitude. All tunes are really good. ***1: 3:34 mid tempo smooth strings, bass & brass from Yemenite culture ****2: 3:02 fast Bulgarian tune, soulful trumpet, great bass & guitar **3: 3:22 mid tempo Turkish tune with a ska chaser 4: 2:46 mid to faster "Mother in law dance" with tuba ****5: 3:39 mid to faster tune from Macedonia **6: 2:35 klezmer with a hint of reggae ***7: 3:01 mid tempo Mid Eastern tune, real nice guitar ***8: 3:40 Greek folk danc, tuba rules 9: 2:56 slow to mid tongue-in-cheek klezmer take on Coltrane’s Giant Steps **10: 3:19 fast fast great frantic dance number, with tuba.
