.: interlúdio :. New Budapest Orpheum Society: Jewish Cabaret In Exile

Como soa um cabaré judeu? Este é um som diferente do fenômeno klezmer, que existe em torno de festas e danças. As canções de cabaré neste disco têm relação com certos tipos de música de salão dos primeiros anos do século 20 e freqüentemente comentam a vida no exílio, provocando diversão satírica sobre as autoridades e as aflições da sociedade. Como referência adicional, eles podem, de certa forma, ser comparados com obras mais familiares, mas similares, como A Ópera dos Três Vinténs, de Kurt Weill. A New Budapest Orpheum Society é um conjunto da Universidade de Chicago. É formado por um grupo misto de vocalistas (Julia Bentley, mezzo-soprano e Stewart Figa, barítono) e instrumentistas (Iordanka Kisslova, violino; Stewart Miller, baixo de corda; Hank Tausend, percussão; e Ilya Levinson, piano).
