FRANK LONDON'S KLEZMER BRASS ALLSTARS Carnival Conspiracy: In the Marketplace All is Subterfudge (Piranha/Harmonia Mundi)
With the Klezmatics, Frank London helped revive interest in klezmer, the happy-sad Jewish music of Eastern Europe. With his new group, the trumpeter takes klezemer on a ride through its wildest sides-through throaty abandon, brassy exuberance and giddy melancholy. London's stated goal is to explore the emotional links between Jewish party music and the torrid sounds of the Brazilian carnival. There are hits of this here and there. Mostly Carnival Conspiracy is an excellent example of what London has always done best- making the age-old rhythms of klezmer feel limber again. 01/05/06
