Klezmer, the Yiddish word for a folk instrumental musician, has come to mean a person, a style, and a scene. This work investigates American klezmer: its roots, its evolution, and its spirited revitalization. It focuses on the history of klezmer, using folkloric sources, records of early musicians unions, and interviews with immigrant musicians.
