Michael Winograd Klezmer Trio
On Saturday, January 8 at 7:30 PM the Michael Winograd Klezmer Trio will be in concert at the Havurah. The trio features three of the top, young musicians playing Klezmer music in New York today. Blending traditional Yiddish songs, and new Klezmer compositions with chamber-like improvisations and spontaneous arrangements, this ensemble creates a new program for each individual audience.
Clarinetist Michael Winograd has recorded and performed with SoCalled, Budowitz, Frank London, and the Klezmer Conservatory Band. He has led workshops and concertized near and far, with highlighted performances in Reunion Island, the Dawson City Music Festival (Yukon), the Winnepeg and Calgary Folk Festivals, Klezmore Festival (Vienna) and Carnegie Hall in New York City. He has taught Klezmer music at the Paris Klezmer week, KlezKanada, and Living Traditions KlezKamp. In his spare time he produces records, composes music and plays synthesizer in the Brooklyn based metal band Yiddish Princess.
Accordionist/composer Patrick Farrell, specializes in new-music, free-jazz, cabaret, theater, klezmer and various other forms of East-European folk music. He leads his own group, Stagger Back Brass Band, and also performs with Ljova and the Kontraband, Frank London's Klezmer Brass All-Stars, Veveritse Brass Band, Romashka and in multiple other groups and odd situations around New York City.
Bassist/vocalist Benjy Fox-Rosen has toured internationally performing throughout the United States and Europe as a member of the Luminescent Orchestrii and with his own ensemble, performing new renderings of Yiddish folk songs as well as original setting of the poetry of Krakow's Mordechai Gebirtig. Benjy performs regularly as a bassist with many of New York's finest Klezmer, Hungarian, Jazz and improvising musicians.
