A centerpiece of the New Jewish Renaissance, the Bester Quartet (formerly known as the Cracow Klezmer Band), has released an exciting and dramatic new album of original compositions complemented with thrilling improvisation.
 

Bester Quartet [Cracow Klezmer Band]
Metamorphoses



Label: Tzadik
Country: USA

"A mainstay of Radical Jewish Culture since 1997 and one of the most consistently rewarding groups out of the New Jewish Renaissance, Bester Quartet (formerly The Cracow Klezmer Band) has released no less that six CDs of brilliant New Jewish music on Tzadik. Distinguished by a daring repertoire and a virtuosity that is always at the service of the music itself, they have performed in some of the most prestigious venues in the world. Their newest CD is one of their very best, original compositions that combine a dramatic sound, classical precision and the excitement of improvisation with the Jewish tradition."-Tzadik
