Big Galut(e) with Guest Narrator Daniel Barton: Jewish Folk with Jazz and Tango Sensibilities
September 25, 2015 @ 7:30 pm - 10:00 pm
$15 – $20
Hailed as “a real treat for open minds” and an “alleged klezmer band,” Big Galut(e) brings its mix of folk, jazz, klezmer, classics, and more to the Poppy. This East Coast quintet performs music ranging from Argentine Yiddish tangos and Renaissance Jewish sonatas, to Mahler compositions with a klezmer sensibility. For the second set, Big Galut(e) will be joined by Daniel Barton, a San Franciscan lawyer and circus veteran. Barton will narrate The Tale of Monish, which tells the story of what happens when the Devil’s wife visits a little Jewish town in Poland.
Featuring:
Robin Seletsky – clarinet
Sasha Margolis – violin, vocals
Mark Rubinstein – accordion
Michael Leopold – theorbo, baroque guitar
Rich Sosinsky – bass
Daniel Barton – narrator for The Tale of Monish
