Program notes

Relive this exceptional concert from this ‘super group’ at the Cité de la Musique in Paris. This ecstatic fusion combines hip-hop, electric music, funk, rock, and traditional Yiddish music.

Created by the pianist, DJ, and rapper Socalled, the group, Abraham Inc., was formed with two other icons of 20th century music - famed trombonist Fred Wesley and virtuosic klezmer clarinettist David Krakauer. This concert is inspired by popular African-Caribbean and Jewish-New York cultures.
