Orchestre Klezmer — Fun Der Khupe

“**SHPIL ES NOKH A MOL – Play it again**
Well, after all these years spent playing for all sorts of occasions, we thought we would make a live concert recording, with all the applause, the coughs in the auditorium during the quietest parts, the foot-stamping and the clapping along (always off the beat) that go with the spirited finale. But that meant giving several concerts in the same hall, finding a hall with just the right acoustics, getting a recording team to come along, and so on, and so on.
So we finally opted for a compromise: a recording in the studio, but with concert conditions. No extra musicians \*, no dubs or other special effects, no multi-tracks, no remix. Just a simple two-track stereo recording.
So, of course, you won’t hear all the audience noises I mentioned above, nor the clarinettist’s belly laughs, the violinist’s hackneyed jokes in between the pieces, the tuba player’s concentrated silence or my stammering when I forget my lines.
In any case, all that would have been edited out!
But you can listen to us in your sitting room as if we were in concert. Or vice versa (the one doesn’t rule out the other).
So sit back comfortably in your armchair, close your eyes and imagine the dazzlingly-lit stage with four musicians doing their best to share with you their love of klezmer - music they always delight in playing, among their other, very different artistic activities.

They kept the coughs, the clapping, the little noise of the salle. Fun Der Khupe feels lived-in that way, très touchant. Shpil es nokh a mol — I am already asking for the next chorus.
