1	Ragtime [Original Cast Recording - RCA] (1996) more music like this by Original Cast Recording Composer Stephen Flaherty, lyricist Lynn Ahrens, and librettist Terrence McNally's stage musical adaptation of E.L. Doctorow's novel Ragtime took a long time to get to Broadway, with full-scale productions in Toronto and Los Angeles dating back more than a year before the New York opening, and they used that time well. One need only compare the ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $15.41!
2	In the Fiddler's House (1995) more music like this by Itzhak Perlman In the Fiddler's House is a collection of traditional klezmer music performed by the acclaimed violinist Itzhak Perlman. Perlman captures the careening, infectious spirit of klezmer with style and grace, making In the Fiddler's House an intoxicating listen. David Jehnzen, All Music Guide see all copies from $3.73! new only from $14.78!
3	Woody Guthrie's Happy Joyous Hanukkah [2006] (2006) more music like this by The Klezmatics A companion piece to 2006's sublime Wonder Wheel, Happy Joyous Hanukkah, like that album, dips into Woody Guthrie's catalog of recently discovered, previously unrecorded Jewish lyrics, to which the Klezmatics have written new music. Originally released in 2004, Happy Joyous Hanukkah, expanded with four additional songs in this re-release, largely ... see all copies from $5.37! new only from $6.59!
4	Wonder Wheel (2006) more music like this by The Klezmatics Wonder Wheel isn't the first album created from completed but never recorded lyrics left behind by the late folk icon Woody Guthrie. In 1998 the British folk-punk singer Billy Bragg and American roots rockers Wilco jointly recorded Mermaid Avenue, which drew from the same pool of material. It was successful enough that a second volume was released ... see all copies from $15.41! new only from $15.41!
5	Rhythm & Jews (1990) more music like this by The Klezmatics One of the great things about klezmer is the fact that while it is a product of Jewish musical traditions, it has also reflected the Jewish-American experience. When American Jews in Brooklyn and Queens were digging Artie Shaw's clarinet in the 1940s and '50s, you'd hear it in klezmer recordings. The Klezmatics' Rhythm & Jews is a lively, ... see all copies from $4.87! new only from $15.98!
6	Jews with Horns (1995) more music like this by The Klezmatics Picture the Reverend Horton Heat with a yarmulke, if you like. Or "Fiddler on the Roof" with Coltraneian complexity. Just don't expect somber religious music. The Klezmatics' brand of Jewish klezmer is as spirited as it is spiritual. The fast numbers, which dominate their third album, are frenzied celebratory drinking songs -- a true revival of ... see all copies from $16.06! new only from $16.06!
7	Klez! (1992) more music like this by The Klezmer Conservatory Band The Klezmer Conservatory Band were one of the earliest groups in the klezmer revival movement, and this album is one of the earliest from them. The album features slightly unconventional neo-klezmer in some ways, occasionally jaunting into New Orleans jazz territory. On the purely musical end, one can find here some exceptional vocals from Judy ... see all copies from $6.50! new only from $15.37!
8	Big Kibosh (1997) more music like this by New Orleans Klezmer All Stars What 3 Mustaphas 3 did for what might be called Eastern European trad-rock, the New Orleans Klezmer Allstars do for klezmer. With tongue firmly in cheek (but hand soundly on heart), the Allstars create a unique, funky brand of traditional Yiddish music. "A Viennese Freilach" is lively yet languid, but they pull out all the stops on "The Wedding ... see all copies from $16.21! new only from $16.21!
9	Klezmer Nutcracker (1998) more music like this by Shirim Klezmer Orchestra It's holiday time! And what does that mean musically? Of course, klezmer! Now you may be saying, "But isn't this traditionally the time for Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker?" Well, yes! But now there is a new holiday tradition for the rest of us (and, in fact, for all of us). For nearly a decade, the Boston-based klezmer consortium Shirim (which plays in ... see all copies from $9.81! new only from $15.93!
10	Possessed (1997) more music like this by The Klezmatics Much of Possessed is a collaboration with Tony Kushner (the Pulitzer- and Tony-winning playwright of Angels in America). He contributes lyrics to two songs, and the second half of the album was designed as a musical score for his play A Dybbuk: Between Two Worlds (an adaptation of Jewish folk tales by S. An-ski). The marriage of artistic ... see all copies from $16.06! new only from $16.06!

12 view cover	East Flatbush Blues (2006) more music like this by Andy Statman Andy Statman is known both for his clarinet and mandolin playing, and he is equally adept at both. Sometimes his two worlds collide, but East Flatbush Blues finds him sticking to his strings, while the simultaneously recorded Awakening from Above is meant to showcase Statman's clarinet work. He's a restless performer with deep roots in Americana ... see all copies from $16.45! new only from $16.45!
13 view cover	Tchorba (2005) more music like this by Les Yeux Noirs Klezmer music has been one of the more recent ethnic genres to be subjected to the predations of DJs and electronica funkmeisters, and the results have sometimes been thrilling. But the French Gypsy/Jewish ensemble les Yeux Noirs take the idea of klezmer fusion in a whole different direction, mixing equal parts traditional Romany melodies, Yiddish ... see all copies from $16.45! new only from $16.45!
14 view cover	Carnival Conspiracy: In the Marketplace All Is Subterfuge more music like this by Frank London's Klezmer Brass Allstars There are some genres of music that can't help but brighten one's day or put a grin on one's face. And Frank London has taken the traditional klezmer style and inserted a whole bundle of oomph and verve into it once again. Rarely would music result in a joyous creation of a feverish Hasidic mosh pit, but the exuberance found on the leadoff track, ... see all copies from $12.98! new only from $20.22!
15 view cover	Remixed! (2006) more music like this by De Amsterdam Klezmer Band see all copies from $14.66! new only from $14.66!
16 view cover	Shalom: Music of the Jewish People (1991) more music like this by Various Artists This disc is a bold and winning attempt to represent the range of music beloved by Jews around the world. The talents of Sophie Tucker, Benny Goodman, the Israeli Concert band, Yehudi Menuhin, and many others are strung together, creating an aural documentary of joy and pain. Tim Sheridan, All Music Guide see all copies from $11.52! new only from $11.52!
17 view cover	Well (1998) more music like this by The Klezmatics & Chava Albertstein When Israeli singer Chava Alberstein produced a documentary film on 20th-century Yiddish poets in 1995 (Too Early to Be Quiet, Too Late to Sing), the writers' stories provoked Alberstein to set some of their poems to music. The results are gathered on The Well, with vocals by Alberstein and music performed by the Klezmatics. The compositions ... see all copies from $11.95! new only from $16.06!
18 view cover	Brother Moses Smote the Water (2005) more music like this by The Klezmatics The Klezmatics are arguably the most genre-bending performers on the klezmer scene today (and perhaps of any day). Here, they combine with an up-and-coming singer from the South. That singer just happens to be of an ancient order of Judaism and is African-American, and he attempts to fuse gospel soul with traditional Jewish works. Of course, they ... see all copies from $20.85! new only from $20.85!

20 view cover	Celebrate Shabbat [2007] (2007) more music like this by Craig Taubman see all copies from $11.40!
21 view cover	The Flying Bulgar Klezmer Band (1993) more music like this by The Flying Bulgar Klezmer Band With carnivalesque extravaganzas, weepy show-stoppers and traditional East European pieces arranged with an eye cocked toward worldbeat, this Toronto-based band wanders within the ample backyard of the Jewish diaspora. Songs meander through Turkey, Macedonia and the Middle East as well as scratchy 78s by blazing clarinet avatar Naftule Brandwein. ... see all copies from $7.98! new only from $13.51!
22 view cover	The King of the Klezmer Clarinet (1997) more music like this by Naftule Brandwein Modern klezmer is unthinkable without clarinet terror Naftule Brandwein, who unleashed his prodigious but unschooled talent on New York City's professional Jewish musical community in the early 20th century. This exceptional collection of remastered 78-rpm sides mostly issued for the first time between 1922 and 1926 demonstrates the melodic ... see all copies from $13.95! new only from $15.07!
23 view cover	Fun Dor Khupo (1995) more music like this by I.J. Hochman Essentially nothing is known about Hochman, who recorded for maybe a dozen companies between 1918 and 1924, with groups he variously called his Yiddish, Jewish, and Ruyssian Balalaika Orchestra. The original recordings apparently didn't sell well, and though Global Village dubs him "Master of Klezmer Music," this is one for the historically minded ... see all copies from $20.75! new only from $20.75!
