Steve said:

When I bend a note in a jazzy way, playing tunes for contradances, someone will inevitably tell me it sounds like klezmer.

I say:

Ain't it the truth!! I _know_ I don't do "real" klezmer, but I "fake" it on one tune my band plays. (it's an amusing little Terkish arrangement of Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer...loooonnng story!)

And even when I am playing just my usual Bulgarian stuff, which is typically in hejaz (which I believe is the same mode as phrygish??), loads of inexperience folk come up to me after and say, "Wow! That sounds like Klezmer!!"
