Pianist/composer Davidson delivers some jazzy Klezmer tunes. Along w/Frank London (founding member of Klezmatics) he explores everything from Eastern European folk to Western European waltzes. Instrumentals, well played and delicious. Perhaps more “jazz” than Klezmer, but great stuff. *1. Brash, brassy and lively jazzy Klezmer romp. 2. Starts w/noodling, moves into a cinematic jazz air. *3. Lively Balkan folk given a jazz makeover. 4. Slow and reflective contemporary Klesmer jazz. *5. Oddly quirky, changing tempos, fun and unpredictable. 6. Mostly slow w/some sweet piano and good jazzy solos. *7. Clarinet and snare drum anchor this lively dance. Yay. 8. Slow and dramatic jazz w/nicely squawky bits. 9. Elegant retro waltz w/ a Franco-Hungarian café sound. 10. Slow and spiritual reflection. *11. Quirky midtempo meander. 12. Slow and lazy air. Quiet – watch levels on this one. | ||
