Today's hip tunes. New music that isn't Classic Rock or Jazz!

One of my favorite groups; I have that DVD.

I often play it for folks who need to hear what 3 cimbaloms, 3
accordians, and 4 violins sound like together. When I play it for
musicians they start muttering about time signatures and counting on
their fingers. For me, though, the best is Fanfare Ciocarlia; they
remind me of old Bennie Moten Orchestra, which turned into, of course,
the Count Basie Orchestra. Fanfare is touring North America and will
be playing Manhattan next month; two of my daughters live in Manhattan
and will be attending under parental edict. I'm also enamoured with
the Kocani Orkestra and that all time champion of the Guca Trumpet
Festival, Boban Markovic. Regards,

J.R.
