Frejlech
was formed in 1981 by Roman Grinberg, his brother Toni Grinberg and Alon Kupert. |
|||
|
Twenty
years on from their successful debut, which has established them as one
of the best Jewish formations in Europe. To listen to Fretjlech is to travel around
the globe through traditional jewish cultures, to enter a past world and
then return to present time reality. Frejlech opens musical
frontiers without losing sight of tradition. |

|
Many people in Europe consider Frejlech to be a synthesis of a concert group and a show band. So they are an affordable way to turn the next Jewish ball, party, wedding, bar-mitzva or briss into a real simkha. For such occasions Frejlech has developed an extensive repertoire including international dance music, Israelian and Chassidic dances, songs in Yiddish, Hebrew, English, Russian, Spanish and French. |

A
short piece of information in English
:
Frejlech,
freylach, fraylakh,
freilach (in
yiddish) – means happy Klezmer
- The word Klezmer comes from the Hebrew 'Kli' and 'zemer' and means instrument.
This music traces its roots way back to medieval Europe and the East European
Jews. By the 19th Century klezmer had become a distinctive musical style,
inspired by the synagogue and non-jewish culture. Klezmer music became popular
at weddings and other celebrations in the community especially for dancing. Frejlech makes this music continue to
breath. |
