A Klezmer Wedding

For Quartet with Opt. String Accompaniment
A Klezmer Wedding is a set of four dances, newly composed but based on traditional models. “The Doina” is an expressive chant for three successive soloists; it twists and turns with the wailing lament of a shepherd’s pipe. Next follows the “Hora,” a slow Rumanian dance in three with a mood that reflects the wedding’s solemn vows. “A Chusidl,” with a moderate speed and bouncy rhythms, gets the party to the dance floor. The concluding “Freylach” (happy, but still in a minor key!) takes the bride, groom, and guests to the edge of frenzy. Arranged for four clarinets with optional strings. Compatible with the following arrangements: item #01-ADV6401 (string quartet), item #01-ADV8405 (woodwind quartet), and item #01-ADV8406 (clarinet quartet). Titles include: Doina * Hora * Chusidl * Freylach.
