I saw Sharim perform their Kletzmer Nutcracker and picked up their CD containing it. Brilliant Clarinet work. I had always kinda thought kletzmer clarinet was just a squawky clarinet sound but the work they did on this CD. Their concert was excellent providing a variety/history of the differnt types of kletzmer before launching into their version of the nutcracker. My fav was their rationale... tsaikowsky probably had jewish friends in russia and really wanted it to sound like that! They changed the names so it became "Tanze of the Latke Queens" etc.. very entertaining. Blake Washington, DC
