HASIDIC NEW WAVE - kabalogy

Although term klezmer referred at first to the "musical instrument" and gradually meant also the musician that played it ,finally,
in the 20th century, this term referred to the traditional music of hasidic hebrewism.That music performed mostly in weddings or other festivities and as many pieces of jewish culture carries a lot of multicultural elements and influences.This genre became quite popular the previous decades amongst listeners all over the world and not specifically because of the ethnic -world fashion of that era.
Important musicians and composers dealt with it, especially ones activated around the NY avant -free -impro -jazz scene like John Zorn, Paradox trio , Andy Statman ,Eric Friedlander a.o.
Amongst them , the Klezmatics members Frank London (trumpet) and Greg Wall (sax) , formed the very exceptional project of HASIDIC NEW WAVE in 90`s and recorded "Jews and the abstract truth " ,their first lp.
Both the old and the new fitted perfectly into their compositions.Free-jazz-impro-psych-funk electricity joins the basic cheerful , simple, but also somewhere distantly mourningful spirit of tradition leading the genre to new, less secular directions and some deeper , mystic ritualism.
"KABALOGY " their 3rd effort, equally or a bit less trippy than 2nd lp "psycho-semitic " , hides and appears some meditative melancholic mood behind of explosions of free imagination mania , anger, simple joy, fun, and ....a humour topped up in the last "giuliani uber alles" cover track.
