Klezmer Music Band Shlomo Leiderman and “Old Red Wine” is where Klezmer meets Dixieland: website: www.barynya.com Composer, arranger and keyboardist Shlomo Leiderman’s new Brooklyn-based sextet “Old Red Wine” takes off where his Israeli group, “Adom Atiq”, left off. Like most young musicians in the 1960s in the Soviet Union, Shlomo Leiderman went underground to learn about and play American Jazz. His first love was Louis Armstrong and Dixieland Jazz, and from there expanded to jazz vanguard of mid 20th century. Later, as Music Director of the State Yiddish Theater of Israel in Tel Aviv, he composed and arranged for a number of productions that toured worldwide. During this time, Mr. Leiderman also founded and directed, Adom Atiq, an ensemble noted for its fusion of jazz, Jewish folk and original music. The band played for 17 years, touring Europe and the Americas, including a LA music festival Old Red Wine

“Khosid Dance” – from my NEW ALBUM, “Echoes of the Shtetl”, out now, on iTunes: bit.ly Just released on Amazon: amzn.to Also available from CD Baby: www.cdbaby.com This piece demonstrates the fusion of Jewish and Romanian-style Gypsy Music which existed in Hungary, prior to the totally pointless destruction of both these communities and their fabulous lost cultures, during the Holocaust… I attempted to learn it by ear from a fantastic CD called “The Lost Jewish Music of Transylvania”(Hanniabal 1973) – www.muzsikas.hu This recording uniquely features the playing of Hungarian Gypsy musicians who played these very melodies with Jewish musicians, and also at Jewish Weddings in Hungary before World War II; thus preserving a precious remnant of the amazing Hungarian Jewish/Gypsy culture which once so wonderfully merged & thrived together. Another fascinating recording I can recommend, is called “Like a Different World”, by the late Leon Schwartz – www.amazon.com In this unique recording, can be heard a Jewish fiddle player who was born in Poland in 1902, and was actually taught to play fiddle by the local Gypsy musicians who lived near his village…a fantastically beautiful fusion of styles! The melodies have familiar Jewish-sounding scales/modes, but show the Gypsy/Romanian influence in the both the forms of the dance music.
