Ida Gillner is very special musician based in Sweden, and in this episode you'll hear the powerful story of her personal journey, embracing different cultures, and also the comforting power of music. Ida is a multi-instrumentalist and composer; her main instruments are soprano saxophone, piano and voice. In the first part of this episode we focus on her project Shtolstse lider, her songs set to the poetry of some of Yiddish's greatest women writers. You'll hear about Ida's childhood on the island of Asperö, forging her own path in different world music traditions, and the Finnish tango group Anna Heikkinen and Längtans Kapell. We also talked about her solo album “Anna” dedicated to her sister, and how the process of writing and recording this healing music comforted her through the shock of her family's loss.

I was honored to be able to record this wide-ranging interview with violinist Yale Strom, who is the leading ethnographer-artist of Klezmer music and history, and also has done many years of research among the Roma communities. He speaks to us about some of his many inspiring experiences during over 75 research expeditions to Central and Eastern Europe and the Balkans. To prepare for this episode, I read several of his books, including his 400 page The Book of Klezmer: The History, The Music, The Folklore, some of which we touched on during this conversation, and he also spoke about two of his upcoming books and other projects. Yale is an energetic and prolific creator; he's also a filmmaker, photographer, educator, playwright and composer, and we spoke about many of his projects during this wide-ranging interview.

Ciro De Rosa presenta GLOBOFONIE #76 del 22/06/2023. Iniziamo da due potenti voci maliane: le fruttuose connessioni pop di Fatoumata Diawara e l'esposizione dei repertori orali fulani di Inna Baba Coulibaly. Raggiungiamo l'Uganda afro-futurista di Faizal Mostrixx (nella foto) e il Botswana dei parlanti Taa, lingua a rischio di estinzione, raggiunto dal produttore Ian Brennan. Passiamo dal flamenco palpitante di Luis de la Carrasca all'immaginifica colonna sonora di Paolo Angeli, ispirata all'opera di Federico Garcia Lorca. Ricordiamo la storia tragica della "Piccola Napoli" di Marsiglia raccontata dai canti di emigrazione di Roberta Roman per poi prestare ascolto alla poetica del dengbêj curdo Saîdê Goyî. Dalla civiltà millenaria evocata dai MishMash, passiamo alla sacralità cantata dal musico-viandante Giovannangelo De Gennaro & Ensemble Calixtinus. Ancora confluenza di mondi nelle note dell'Hartmann Ensemble e de La Cantiga de la Serena. Dopo l'incontro tra cultura Rom e klezmer intessuto da Yale Strom & Hot Pstromi, facciamo tappa nella Moldavia romena con i testimoni della tradizione Neculai Florea, Nicolae Amarandei e Valentin Bălășoiu, protagonisti del fieldwork del musicista e ricercatore Sașa-Liviu Stoianovici. Finiamo in Polonia con gli archi dei Vołosi, che coniugano classicità e cifra folk rurale e, procedendo lungo i confini tra Ucraina e Bielorussia, infine, lasciamo il campo alle musiche transfrontaliere di Wernyhora, e Hajda Banda.

Rabbi Michael Beyo and Dr. Adrian McIntyre talk with Yale Strom about Jewish music, folklore, and other forms of cultural expression. Yale Strom is a professor at San Diego State University and a violinist, composer, filmmaker, writer, photographer, and playwright. He is a pioneer among revivalists in conducting extensive field research in Central and Eastern Europe and the Balkans among the Jewish and Roma communities. Initially, his work focused on the use and performance of klezmer music among these two groups. Gradually, his focus increased to examining all aspects of their culture from post-World War II to the present. From more than 3 decades and 75 such research expeditions, Strom has become the world's leading ethnographer-artist of klezmer music and history. His klezmer research was instrumental in helping form the repertoires of his klezmer band, Hot Pstromi in New York and San Diego. Since Strom's first band began in 1982, he has been composing his own New Jewish music, which combines klezmer with Khasidic nigunim, Roma, jazz, classical, Balkan and Sephardic motifs. These compositions range from quartets to a symphony. Strom is also one of the only top composers of Jewish music to carry on the tradition of writing original songs, with Yiddish lyrics, about humanitarian and social issues. His fifteen CDs run the gamut of traditional klezmer to "new" Jewish music. Yale Strom was the first klezmer musician to perform at the United Nations General Assembly. His research has also resulted in photo documentary books, documentary films, as well as CD recordings. Strom latest children's illustrated, “Shloyml Boyml and His Lucky Dreydl,” was published in November 2020. Conversation with the Rabbi is a project of the East Valley Jewish Community Center, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, neighborhood organization that has served individuals and families inclusive of all races, religions, and cultures since 1972.

Jesus Florido, Asturias by Albeniz arr. Rachel Barton Pine Inquiries from my Inbox: Penelope asks, "How many concerts a year do you play? Just wondering..." Random Musical Thought: Teaching artist Eric Booth writes: "Entertainment happens within what you already know. Underneath its many features that inspire, delight, frighten, sadden us, it confirms our sense of the way the world is. That's the whole point of entertainment- to stimulate and affirm- and it's often done brilliantly. The artistic experience had better not be opposed to this, or we are in big trouble. Art also stimulates and affirms, but it happens outside of what we already know; art enlarges our sense of the works- it expands our sense of the possible." "Live from the Mayne Stage," a concert on WFMT radio from October 3, 2010.

Klezmer Podcast 42- Extreme Klezmer Makeover/Hot Pstromi. These interviews were recorded on Sept. 14, 2008 at McCabe's Guitar Shop. Joellen Lapidus from Extreme Klezmer Makover; Yale Strom and Elizabeth Schwartz from Hot Pstromi are the guests.
The Book of Life celebrates klezmer music! We visit the Judaica Sound Archives at Florida Atlantic University and hear some of their historic klezmer samples. We talk to Joan Betty Stuchner, author of The Kugel Valley Klezmer Band (also known in Canada as Shira's Hanukkah Gift). We meet Yale Strom, a "one man klezmer industry," who tells us about his books, films, travels, and performances.
