Klezmer High Live
Magdalena Abrams (vocals, clarinets), Cornelia Gottesleben (violin), Frank Naruga (guitars), Maria Rothfuchs (double bass)Mischpoke is a Hamburg-based klezmer band that has long since won an international audience. And anyone who experiences the exciting performance of these five strong artistic personalities immediately senses this collective live energy that sets hearts and hips vibrating. With "Tsukunft", Mischpoke consistently continues their unmistakable sound of klezmer, jazz, world music and classical music - and consciously looks to the future. Traditional material is transformed and developed into an open, cross-genre sound language in which virtuosity, joy of playing and sonic curiosity playfully intertwine. Whether in a small club or in the Berlin Philharmonie: Mischpoke draws the audience into a maelstrom of driving rhythms, poetic lyrics, subtle timbres and unleashed improvisation. Mischpoke's music is rooted in Jewish culture - a cultural context that is often read politically in current debates. This makes it all the more important for the band to create a musical space in which diversity, contrasts and friction do not appear as opposites, but as energy: lively, productive and unifying!
