A Klezmer Wedding by Mike Curtis is a set of four dances, newly-composed but based on traditional models. The Doina is an expressive chant for three successive soloists; it twists and turns with the wailing lament of a shepherd's pipe. Next follows the Hora, a slow Rumanian dance in three with a mood that reflects the wedding's solemn vows. A Chusidl, with a moderate speed and bouncy rhythms, gets the party to the dance floor. The concluding Freylach (happy, but still in a minor key) takes the bride, groom, and guests to the edge of frenzy.

The four parts of this fresh work, Mexican Fantasies by Mike Curtis, are delicately interwoven. Alternating between melancholy-solemn and lively, the movements tell of festivities under the starry sky, of wonderful friendships, or even a tale of the queen of the tropics.

This is a journey through four styles of music: funk, jazz, klezmer, and tango. The jazz style is a breezy West-Coast jazz waltz and the klezmer music is an arrangement of Abraham Goldfaden's 1880 Jewish lullaby, Rozhinkes Mit Madlen (Raisins with Almonds). Titles: Funky * Jazz Waltz * Klez Rozhinkes Mit Mandlen * Tango.
