This 5-piece ensemble from Sacramento has been entertaining Northern California audiences since 1995. The band has issued two critically acclaimed CDs, The Flower of Berezin (1998) and And I in the Uttermost West (2005), and has just released its third album, Klezmer at the Confluence (2010). They have defined what may be called "the Sacramento sound" in klezmer and Sephardic Jewish music, using a particularly infectious blend of strings and reeds, with vocals in Yiddish, Hebrew, Ladino and English. In the words of one reviewer, the Freilachmakers’ music "bubbles with exuberance and a great sense of fun", their playing "highly virtuostic, yet subtle".
Our new CD, Klezmer at the Confluence: Jewish Music from Sacramento, is now available! Check it out here. |
