The Evolution of the Klezmer Clarinet: Naftule Brandwein, Ilene Stahl, Michael Winograd, and more

By Nat Seelen

Naftule Brandwein in 1925. (3 min)

As we all know, the clarinet is the soul of any klezmer band – don’t tell the fiddlers! For modern musicians, almost all of our knowledge of the “traditional” klezmer clarinet sound is filtered through two artists who immigrated to New York in the early 20th century. Dave Tarras and Naftule Brandwein weren’t just leading performers in the scene, they also dominated the clarinet chair in the lively Yiddish music recording industry. Listen to Tarras and Brandwein perform nearly a century ago, then compare with a selection of today’s top klezmer clarinetists. How have today’s klezmer clarinetists drawn on their musical heritage to create new sounds and styles?
