  1. Another new photo, I think this guy was the founder of the Progressive Musical Benevolent Society (he's identified as such on one of the archways) but I know basically nothing about him. A cornet/trumpet player born in the Russian Empire. Such a common name that would be hard to search...🤔

  11. glad this is coming together; a year ago when I was in NYC Pete Rushefsky met me and was telling me a trove of handwritten scores from cimbalom player Joseph Moskowitz had been uncovered in DC. I'll probably speak at this zoom about the old NY klezmer characters who appear in these scores.

  14. tickets have gone on sale for the event I've been working on preparing for a year, the Vancouver Peretz Centre's 80th anniversary banquet on May 23rd. I've been helping bring to life co-director Itamar's idea of a shtetl wedding themed gala, along with award-winning writer Jess Goldman and music arrangements by me🤓there are limited low cost tickets that will probably go fast if price is an issue.

  15. 16:00 @BerlinBrassCaravan

    A dozen musicians gathered in Berlin to musically move towards the South-East – stopping here, and there, and everywhere, and having a blast on the way. With a mix of original compositions, well-known tunes in new arrangements and hidden gems, this #brassband blares melodies from #Balkan and #Klezmer traditions on top of a rhythm section exploding with wild grooves and frantic #Ska beats that make everybody hop around.

  16. Hitler's bunker liberated, from the depths emerge rows of sedated blonde women clones, flawed attempts to create Aryan versions of the Barry Sisters. they wander the streets terrifying people with their uncanny, swaying bizarro attempts at Jewish music

  24. RE: glammr.us/@carkner/11621197407

    this clarifies what happened to the grant I was involved with as a team member in that maybe hadn't reached active status and wasn't being defunded by this effort, although another Klezmer Institute project was, deemed as being DEI because it aimed to make music manuscripts accessible (🙄)

  25. 🎼 KlarinettenspielerInnen aller Länder vereinigt euch! Mit der Erweiterung um neue #Emoji-Grafiken (siehe z.B. #Apple #iOS 26.4) kommt ein weiteres #Blasinstrument hinzu – leider nur die Posaune. Neben #Trompete, #Horn, #Flöte und #Saxophon nun also wieder nur #Blech. Die #Königin der Instrumente, die Klarinette, bleibt dagegen erneut außenvor. Ich prangere das an. ✊🏼 🎶

  26. Portland OR folks, check out my friend Zoë Aqua's upcoming show with her band marrying klezmer and Transylvanian fiddle music. their album was one of my faves of last year.

  27. "Filling in the Blanks" on my Progressive Musical Benevolent Society research about the Blanks/Blankleders family of musicians. There were about 10 of them in the P.M.B.S., most related to Shimele Blank AKA Yankel Blankleder, a klezmer violinist who owned this music shop at 190 East 2nd Street.

  28. Nice article about my friend Ira's new album 😁 highlights of which were performed here at the Peretz Centre last month, to hollers from the queer youngsters and bemused smiles from many of the klezmer fan seniors 😅
