Klezmer Juice is vibrant Yiddish soul imbued with musical influences both old and new from around the world. Representing a new generation of Jewish soul musicians, the youthful group members see themselves as torchbearers of an ancient traditional craft that unites generations in spirit, offering fresh interpretations of traditional tunes.
While many of us associate klezmer music with European immigration to the United States , Jews at the turn of the century were settling all parts of the Americas , and they and their descendents have a rich history in Mexico , Argentina , Brazil , and many other Latin American countries. Klezmer Juice bandleader and clarinet player Gustavo Bulgach was born and raised in one such community in Buenos Aires, Argentina. A part of the large and active Jewish community there, he learned Klezmer music from his family at a young age. Inspired by the religious and secular life of the Argentine community, Bulgach, who now lives in Los Angeles , has traveled around the globe, finding that Klezmer music is the "soundtrack of the Diaspora."
