Klezmerfest features Greg Wall - clarinet, Jordan Hirsch - trumpet, Zevy Zions - accordion, Brian Glassman - bass, Aaron Alexander - drums. They have played together since the early 90s and have played hundreds of concerts & gigs in schools with their celebrated Klez for Kidz program. They have released two CDs including "Party Music" and "Life of the Party"
“Make no mistake, dear listeners – this is the emese zakh (real thing). The approach may not be the most contemporary, but it is totally honest and completely true to the ideals of the music. It just doesn’t come any better.” Pete Sokolow, (from the liner notes of Klezmerfest’s CD “Life of the Party”)
Jordan Hirsch's "Overnight Kugel" performs the music at the nexus of Klezmer and the Chasidic music of the 1950’s and ‘60’s. It’s the New York sound, for singing, dancing, and….eating. Not necessarily at the same time.
