Sounds Like
"...Wonderfully raw instrumental playing of Hungarian and Balkan dances, songs sung in Hungarian, Romanian and Romany... Some very unusual repertoire, well played and strongly recommended."
Anti von Klewitz and her band Csókolom play music from the heart of Eastern Europe. The violinist absorbed the gypsy music from the Balkans and Hungary at an early age and explores the essence of the music in an exciting and original way - a new voice fusing styles and trends.
With her spirited amalgam of gypsy-styled Hungarian, Balkan, klezmer and gypsy-swing music Anti awakens the slumbering Slavic soul of the listener - with passion, humor, a voice that grabs you and a virtuoso band that rocks.

As gospellers have said, Beneath signalling skies, On land dusty to tread, A trough in a stable Was the strawy first-bed Of a divine baby - The forgiving Godhead.
A season for new hope - There then and here now; The yuletide of goodwill - There then and here now.
In respect of this chance, Beneath bright or dark skies, Faith's the star that we glance Attending Christ's churches And trying to enhance, With singing and ritual, Our God-loving stance.
Am 21. November findet das Mutabor Abschlusskonzert der Tour im Berliner Astra Kulturhaus statt. Da es im Winter kein Konzert in Potsdam geben wird, solltet ihr euch frühzeitig Tickets sichern. Auf nach Berlin !

Poem 162 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse (please see my blog): TEES TO TYNE: FIRST IMPRESSIONS - SUMMER 2001
Where traditions are not so rare; Sea, country and works scent the air; A multitude of monuments, Planted tubs and patterned pavements.
The longish pedestrian malls; The remnants of defensive walls; Historic buildings are a gauge Of the respect for heritage.
Wheat, rape and pines in the fields; Estuaries guarded by shields; Long sandy beaches and wide scenes; Romantic-ruin go-betweens.
Rivers in parts licked by trees, Or fringed by boat clubs, wharfs, gantries, And crossed by practical delights - Varied spans, forming pleasing sights.
Fine churches headed at Durham; Football kits ad infinitum; Kept castles - one for study; Masonry behind masonry.
And, with moulding-works out that way, It’s somewhere for a longer stay..?
