All music composed by Boris Malkovsky.

Recorded at Keshet Studios Jerusalem.

A powerful project of bayan (button accordion) and string quintet by this exciting young composer/perf o rmer based in Israel. Originally commissioned by the Tel-Aviv Chamber Music Ensemble for members of the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra, Boris has adapted and expanded this music for his first Tzadik release. Mixing Jewish traditions with classical, gypsy and downtown improvisation, this is a rich world of lyricism and driving rhythms. New Jewish Music at its best.
