Carpathian-Pacific (klezmer)

A special off-the-rails journey from the western Ukraine to western Oregon, with surprise detours...

Featuring some of Portland’s finest indie musicians (3 Leg Torso, Blue Cranes, THMPR, Klezmocracy) in an exciting new exploration of klezmer and Yiddish song, Romanian and Hungarian fiddle virtuosity, devotional Hasidic melody, American roots music, and much more! Our repertoire draws from the Yiddish/Hungarian-speaking world of our grandparents, with echoes from across the Carpathians and elsewhere. Your musical chaperones: Yankl Falk (vocals/clarinet/Schandflöte), Courtney Von Drehle (accordion/sax), Andrew Ehrlich (violin), Ralph Huntley (keyboards), and Ji Tanzer (percussion).
