Amsterdam Klezmer Band - Diaspora (2026) [Hi-Res]

"Diaspora" marks Amsterdam Klezmer Band's definitive return to its acoustic foundations, captured via a raw, one-take live recording at Amsterdam's Singelkerk. Eschewing studio artifice, the album introduces a dynamic percussive element through drummer Mischa Porte, seamlessly integrating traditional klezmer with Romanian, Turkish, and jazz-inflected motifs. The project serves as a poignant historical document, representing the final contribution of co-founder Gijs Levelt while reaffirming the ensemble's commitment to maintaining klezmer as a vibrant, evolving communal language.
