Vanessa & Georg Klezmer Duo
"Meeting Moishe"
An evening of Klezmer music and Yiddish songs from the collection of the legendary Moishe Beregovski
Vanessa Vromans : Violin, Vocals
Georg Brinkmann : Clarinet, Vocals and Piano
Duo Vanessa Vromans and Georg Brinkmann play the music of East European Jews with the intensity of chamber musicians. This rarely heard arrangement allows for individual expression and improvisation. Using the fiddle, clarinet and vocals Klezmer music and Yiddish song is presented both as originally intended and becomes experimental at the same time.
The programme draws on the rich treasure trove of songs and instrumentals from the legendary Beregovski collection.
