Our normal line-up is a four piece band, with fiddle, trumpet or clarinet, guitar and double bass. Larger line-ups are possible if you need a bigger sound.

We can do dancing tuition for klezmer and Israeli music as part of your event.

Our standard repertoire is klezmer, but we often learn new non-klezmer tunes by request.

We can play acoustically or with amplification for larger (or noisier!) venues.

Our rates depend on the individual circumstances of the event, which include various factors such as the length of the set and travel time/distance. We will be very pleased to provide you with a quote for your specific requirements.
