Tuml = Lebn (CD)

CD-PIR2233

The Best of the first 20 Years!
A World Music Charts Europe top album for 2008 !
A celebration of 20 years of creative, collective innovation, "Tuml = Lebn" presents the most outstanding output of The Klezmatics' oeuvre.
Formed in New York in 1986 the group made their international debut two years later at the "Heimatklänge" Festival in Berlin's Tempodrom, bringing a musical culture, with ancient origins in east European tradition, back from New York to Berlin. Since then they have performed in over 20 countries and released numerous albums of wild, provocative, reflective and ecstatically danceable songs.
Their music is one steeped in Jewish spiritualism and Eastern European tradition while incorporating more provocative themes such as social rights and anti-fundamentalism with eclectic musical influences such as gospel, punk, and Arab, African and Balkan rhythms.
But the incorporation of nearly all types of contemporary music is not their only trademark. It's also their repertoire of songs. They repeatedly surprise their audiences with formerly unknown Jewish songs of traditional origins alongside fresh compositions set to original texts by contemporary poets such as Michael Wex. Their powerfully diverse collaborative repertoire radically dispels the notion of pigeonholing music. The Klezmatics have made a career out of breaking down musical barriers, fully embracing klezmer and their Jewishness, while using these same essential spiritual, historical, and cultural foundations as a springboard to ambitious new musical hybrids.
The Klezmatics' Best of "Tuml = Lebn" contains 16 timeless songs selected from all their albums released by Piranha Musik since 1988.
