60-minute interview

"Bert Stratton, clarinetist of the Yiddishe Cup Klezmer Band, performs live in the studio and discusses the band's new neo-Borscht Belt klezmer comedy album.  An in-depth discussion on Israeli versus American-style klezmer and its significance to Jewish musicians.  Plus, the fine line between cheesy, inspirational and just plain stupid."
-- Ben Bresky

This hour-long interview also features eight selections from Yiddishe Cup CDs:  Shabbos Nign, Fun Tashlikh, Tartar Dance, Nudnik the Flying Shisl, Play Klezmer Play, Li'l Gypsy, Di Goldene Khasene and Essen. (This is the best way to hear Yiddishe Cup for free!)
