Frank London, Klezmatics front man and leader of the Klezmer Brass Allstars, has collaborated with many musicians thoughout his long career; here he teams up with Hungarian multi-instrumentalist and eccentric Bela Agoston taking a musical tour around eastern Europe.

From record label:
"It is a long-long CD, which is worth listening to. A folk song from former Upper Hungary, verses of Sándor Weöres and Attila József (recitated by Tilo Werner) are built upon each other - and built in each other as well, enhancing their inherent affinity. Or the New-Year greeting Moldovan traditional recitation, the gipsy folk song and that of Gyimes, intertwined with the hora of Klezmer devotion performed on trumpet by the great Frank London with a kind of vitality that comes from sorrow and suffering, despite everything, beyond everything and ”still” : in the same way as the songs from former Upper Hungary and Gyimes, and the Moldovan gipsy recitative song have talked to us. Yes, recitative song, even where only music is played, music of Béla Ágoston, which talks to you, involves you and tells you something... Listen to it. It says how kabbala can bring luck (wealth, happiness and life), and why Gyimes – why this (Eastern European) exposure and country fair (an exact shot of the fields of soul)."
