Augustin BONDOUX / Patrick FReMEAUX For his first Klezmer album, Marc Crofts has gathered musicians from many horizons (Switzerland, France, Poland, Bulgaria). Each of them brings in a different musical influence, whether from Klezmer, the Balkans or gypsy traditions, but also jazz and classical music. The violinist draws from a lost folk repertoire which he has rearranged in a totally novel way, constructing a dialogue between traditional codes and personal musical experiences that belong only to his companions and himself. Navigating old traditions and inventive modernity, "Urban Myths" offers a jubilant and subtle new interpretation of klezmer music played by virtuoso musicians who share a precious and communicative complicity.
