 For the first time you will have the rare opportunity to play original arrangements of traditional genuine Eastern European klezmer melodies composed especially for the clarinet.

The author, Felix Teplov, musicologist and clarinet player was born in Odessa and was bathed with the musical and cultural inheritance of the old world's klezmer.
He succeeded to gather, arrange and compose wonderful melodies, "nigunim", which are genuine klezmer compositions.

Giving you the possibility to play this music is a real gift and we are proud to allow you to share this fantastic musical experience.
This is a "must have" for all clarinet players from students to seasoned professional, and for musicians or instrumentalists who love klezmer and soul music.
For teachers it is a great opportunity to awaken the musical interest of the young students and propose them a new and fresh approach to the learning process.

Musicians of all levels and from different backgrounds will greatly enjoy and benefit learning and playing those ten irresistible pieces. Albeit being very characteristic, klezmer is a universal language.

Enter and appreciate the wonderful universe of klezmer music.

Included in the book three CDs:

A play along CD including 10 tracks playing the full performance to allow you learn the songs, the tempo, articulation and dynamics.
Then another CD including 10 tracks playing the accompaniment only to allow you to play along with a professional soundtrack

As a very special bonus

You will receive the CD "Enjoy Klezmer" featuring Maxim Solniker one of the most promising talent of the new generation of klezmer musicians.
He is playing nine tunes of the music book, Hasidic Medley 1 is played by Nava Aminoff who adds another facet of sensibility.
Maxim is the student of the Maestro Giora Feidman, but he has developed his own style of playing mixing the sensibility of the traditional klezmorim with a sense of freshness and novelty.
He is marvelously served by the guitar accompaniment of Daniel Kraisler. The Spanish guitar solos intertwines superbly with the clarinet brilliancy.

By hearing those wonderful artists, you can reach a new dimension in your playing, you can find new sources of inspiration, new ideas, not by imitating but rather by being involved deeply into the music atmosphere.

Each tune is structured as a complete concert piece alternating deep and slow meditative part with faster and brilliant tempo dances which climaxes up to the finale.

Some ornamentation is indicated as suggestions, listen to Maxim Solniker on the Bonus CD to get inspired and experiment with your own. Don't hesitate to express your creativity and add your own personal touches. Klezmer is the art of interpretation.
