Mischpoke is a Hamburg klezmer band that has built up an international audience. Their music is an inimitable mix of traditional, newly arranged and self-composed instrumental pieces, in which the genres of klezmer, jazz, tango, world music and classical music are explored in the most beautiful way. Yiddish songs are heard in new arrangements and repeatedly surprise with their own song text passages that make political and social references to the present day.
In their current programme, Mischpoke adhere to the power of music as a universal language that creates connections between people and cultures. With their passionate and highly virtuoso playing, the Mischpoke concerts always create this collective live energy that gets hearts and hips dancing!
