RE: purchasing 1st klezmer recording

as for the old school, Naftule Brandwein & Shloimke Beckerman are my favorites; many also go for Dave Tarras. There's a nice CD, "Naftule Brandwein, king of the klezmer clarinet," which i highly recommend. I don't know of any CDs of just Shloimke, but he's on a few compilations (one put out by Arhoolie records, i believe). I haven't sought Dave Tarras much, but you could probably find something through amazon.com or the like.

For more recent stuff, look for Budowitz & Di Naye Kapelye. They actually both are after a very old sound, & both do it very well (as far as i know, though i wasn't actually alive 130 years ago to confirm that;). Brave Old World is also very beautiful.

enjoy!
