@Kostagh In essence, we live in a small world; we are all brothers, and we all have a lot in common. Point: This music has SOUL!

@TheSRalston it's funny though, if you watch him play this style, perlman is playing way more loose and sloppy than he would if he were playing the brahms with the berlin phil. still has all the chops and training and gorgeous tone, but he is able to leave some of the refinement at the door and just jam out with these guys.

Itzhak Perlman, perhaps the last of the true meaning of Virtuosos.

Does anybody know the proper tuning for guitars when it comes to klezmer music? Or is it just a matter of playing in the right key, with the standard EADGBe tuning?

@quigonreturns eeh are you Greek? :-)

[ggrriiggoorree]

A lot of Romanian influence, but also from other eastern European traditional songs.
