About Klezmer music:

Unlike other traditions of music, the history of Klezmer is not known in detail. Beginning as the traditional folk music of eastern European Jewish communities, it was usually instrumental music that was meant to be danced to. It has seen several changes over the years, most notably when Jewish immigrants to the US became influenced by the american jazz scene, and started to incorporate this into their musical tradition.

In recent years, many musicians have started to revert back to the pre-jazz era of Klezmer music, and both of these types of bands are available on the Last Minute Musicians entertainment directory. Modern Klezmer bands may also cover jazz standards and popular music, in their own style and instrumentation.
