Strains of the shtetl echo through this trad. trio’s old and new klezmer melodies. The Klezmer Village Band adds a 21st-century zest to klezmer, the distinctive music with deep roots in Jewish Eastern Europe."Skill, generosity and an enormous amount of fun" (Plymouth Herald)

The ensemble is a collaboration between Ilana Cravitz (violin), John Macnaughton (clarinet) and Theo Malka-Wishart (double bass). Members of the group have formed and performed with some of the best-known ensembles on the klezmer scene, including the London Klezmer Quartet, Klezmer Foygl, She’Koyokh and Oysland.
