Yale Strom & Hot Pstromi present "From the Shuk to the Shtetl." The concert traces how the strains of Middle Eastern folk music heard in the busy shuks influenced the klezmer musicians who played throughout Eastern Europe. Arabic, Sephardic, Hebrew, and Yiddish songs and melodies convey the centrality of the Middle Eastern modes and rhythms.
Joining Hot Pstromi are two very special guest musicians: Jamie Papish and Amos Hoffman. Papish is renowned for being one of the top Middle Eastern percussionists, and Hoffman is considered one of the best oud players in the world.
They will be joined by Gunnar Biggs on contrabass, Fred Benedetti on guitar, Tripp Sprague on reeds, Elizabeth Schwartz on vocals, and Yale Strom on violin.
