FOUR EXPERIENCED MUSICIANS DO KLEZMER WITH PASSION AND ENERGY

Since 2000 Urban tunélls klezmerbandhas given new life to an old musical tradition, the klezmer music. The four experienced musicians do so with passion and energy. Idiosyncratic interpretations are conveyed by the beautiful sounds of clarinet, accordion, double bass and piano. They play the klezmer music with respect and awareness of the cultural legacy.

Urban tunélls klezmerband presents exquisitely folk music rooted in Eastern Europe, the Middle East and Asia through creative arrangements and warm-hearted vigour. The clarinet player Morten Michelsen urged to express it his own way. The varied backgrounds of the exceptionally skilled musicians range from classical and jazz to gypsy music and folk rock. In addition to the clarinet, the band’s line up consists of accordion – Jovan Pavlovic, Sondre Meisfjord double bass and baking vockal, Morten Michelsen clarinets and baking vokals and Tor-Petter Aanes piano and leading vocal.
