In a special concert Shtetl Band Amsterdam and Orchestre Ismailia join together and perform Klezmer and Chaabi tunes from their own repertoires.
An oriental taksim and a Yiddish doina lead into this catchy and danceable Chaabi melody from Orchestre Ismaila's repertoire. Yiddish singer Lucette van den Berg joins Ismailia's lead singer Akil Lamdahhi.
