Delight in klezmer music fused with modern Jazz, American standards and theater. The clarinet belly laughs at a joke told by the violin. The moody piano longs for unrequited love in a minor key. First rate musicians and vocalist. This cd is fun.

The career of Jinny Marsh includes off-Broadway, summer stock, the New York Cabaret scene, commercials and entertaining aboard cruise ships. Known as a "lively, fun to watch singer," the Boston Globe called her "a charismatic singer." Marsh has always loved Jewish music but it wasn't until she began studying cantorial music that she realized the joy and profound meaning when singing traditional Yiddish theatre songs. She began performing with a klezmer band and eventually formed her own called, Jinny Marsh's Hot Kugel Klezmer Band. Her group consists of the most talented and experienced musicians in the Washington, D. C. area. Jinny Marsh's Hot Kugel Klezmer Band has performed on the Kennedy Center's Millennium Stage and in folk festivals in across the United States at the National folk festival in East Lansing, Michigan, Lowell, Massachusetts, and locally at the Smithsonian folk life festival, the Library of Congress and local community festivals in the DC metropolitan area.
