Chassidic Breeze by Zalman Goldstein
From the producer of the hit “NON-STOP CHABAD” comes a delicate and refreshing album of a different nature.
Remastered in honor of the 10th anniversary of the release of the extraordinary “VODKAZAK!” album, the original session tapes were revisited and completely remixed using the best takes from the recording sessions (some never heard before) plus new percussion tracks by Klezmer percussionist Aaron Alaxander were recorded for extra spice and pop, and the entire album was remastered utilizing today’s advanced audio mixing tools for your listening pleasure.
All told, its an amazing virtuoso performance of Chassidic Niggunim led by great American Klezmer pros on original Russian folk instruments. This amazingly smooth and gentle-sounding album contains a selection of hand-picked melodies spanning two hundred years of Chassidic music, and captures the essence and delight of these heavenly melodies in the way the ancient Chassidim might have heard them played back in the day.
