   About David Krakauer's Klezmer Madness!
As a leading figure in world music, clarinetist David Krakauer has redefined klezmer through his innovative recordings and passionate stage performances. With his band Klezmer Madness!, Krakauer has forged alliances with a multitude of musical genres including jazz, rock, funk and most recently hip-hop. The band’s newest release entitled Bubbemeises: Lies My Gramma Told Me, marks the first full collaboration between Krakauer and hip-hop artist Socalled. Krakauer cites this CD as a whole new chapter in his life as a composer, a musician and a producer. It is a partnering that ushers these two eclectic and influential musicians on to the world dance music stage. “Klezmer has always been dance music, and I see this collaboration with Socalled as a revamped continuation of that,” says Krakauer. With a powerful line up of world-class musicians, including free-spirited bassist Nicki Parrott, cutting-edge jazz guitarist Sheryl Bailey, masterful accordionist Will Holshouser, soulful drummer Michael Sarin, and hip-hop beat architect Socalled, Krakauer’s compositions are infused with a hard edge and a spirited passion. His music easily finds its home in the tumultuous times of the twenty-first century and speaks simultaneously to those who know klezmer from its traditional roots, to the dance club frequenters and world music enthusiasts of today. This is definitely not your gramma’s klezmer, unless gramma likes remixed Hasidic chant, klezmer tributes to James Brown, and an in-your-face raving battle for reinvented Jewish identity.

“Krakauer’s Klezmer Madness! is the leading klezmer band working today. He has the ability to bridge traditional music with modern sound…music from your great-grandparents getting on the boat to your kid scratching your favorite LPs in the basement.”
—Mark Corroto, AllAboutJazz.com

"...Krakauer sounds like somebody who could beat you up without laying a finger on you, just by pointing his clarinet in your direction."
—John DeFore, San Antonio Current

"There is arguably no one today playing klezmer–or any music, for that matter–that is at once as deeply rooted in tradition while at the same time as utterly innovative and in-the-moment as David Krakauer."
—Seth Rogovy (author of The Essential Klezmer), The Berkshire Eagle

Et oui ! Kumpania Tzigane déménage au vert (en partie) dans le beau coin de l'Ariège ! A tous les amis Toulousains, ne vous inquiétez pas. Nous continuons les soirées "Boom Tzigane" sur la ville à partir de janvier. La soirée deviendra mensuelle formule "club".
On vous tient au courant très vite !!!



Voilà la première soirée organisée en Ariège, à l'Estrade (Arvieux - 1h30 de Toulouse), en co-organisation avec nos amis du Créé Louche une programmation de folie !
Venez nombreux, de près ou de loin, la soirée promet de durée toute la nuit et pour ceux qui ne sont pas trop frileux, camping possible sur place.

KALIMERA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

MERCI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Conversation entendue sur le pont d’un bateau reliant les Cyclades au Mississippi :

« Qui sont ces hommes ?
… Grecs, Français, Flamands et Suisses, mélange de citadins et de montagnards
… Et que font-ils donc ?
- De la musique pardi ! Tribale et primitive, mystique et sensuelle.
- Oui oui… et en quel honneur ?
- Et bien mon cher monsieur en l’honneur des mystérieux fragments d’Héraclite, de son message sacré chanté en grec ancien !
-Heraclite, le vieux fou couvert de boue ?
-Lui-même ! »


(heraclite est un projet apatride né de la rencontre entre la culture antique grecque, avec les work songs et preachings à la genèse du blues américain. Le chant en grec ancien, posé sur une musique tribale, scande le message du philosophe Héraclite : la réalité est changement ! Voilà une vérité qui vaut la peine de courir le monde !
Fondé en juin 2007 sur les terres françaises, le groupe heraclite se produit très vite en tournée, avec le bluesman de San Francisco Seth Augustus (successeur de ses maîtres Paul Pena et Muddy Waters) qui les rejoint sur scène à grands renfort de chants gutturaux. Après une assise dans leur ville de Rennes et une tournée pour l’été 2008, les aventuriers d’heraclite veulent élargir encore le cercle de la transe antique !)
