A Mazeldiker Yid

Product Description
This recording developed over a period of several years, during which Di Naye Kapelye have continued scrambling around East Europe looking for conrtexts and traces of Jewish music, a good half century after the Holocaust nearly destroyed Europe's Jewish population and culture.

There are still Jewish communities in East Europe and in the memories of this aging population lives a sense of Jewish culture - Yiddishkeit - that developed strong local expressions of faith and music. Furthermore, the memory of Jewish culture is often maintained by non-Jews, those who choose to cherish the legacy of neighbors lost but not forgotten.

Recorded in Budapest August 2001 includes a 20 paged booklet with text in English, French and German.

Customer Reviews:

One of the best Yiddish CDs of 2002!.......2003-01-10

I saw this group - Di Naye Kapelye at the 2002 Ashkenaz festival in Toronto, and I have to say, that I was impressed. They are full of energy, and, play some of the most 'authentic' Yiddish and Klezmer music around. The group's founder, Bob Cohen, found most of the material for this album by conducting research throughout Eastern and Central Europe, and it truly paid off. This is a great CD.
