Duo Peylet-Cuniot. (21:40 min)
Nano Peylet and Denis Cuniot are passionate about Klezmer and Hasidic music. They love it intensely. They appreciate the beauty of the melodies, the expressive possibilities, and the stunning sounds of the clarinet that stem from this musical tradition.
They are thrilled when others share their enthusiasm and when people outside the Jewish community discover and enjoy this music.

III–
Trio Kroke. (25:17 min)
A Polish instrumental ensemble of world music. Initially associated exclusively with Klezmer music, the band draws inspiration from ethnic music in their current work, incorporating their own improvisations. This creates a unique style that transcends boundaries, forms, and timelines, a quality that has been noted not only by the audience but also appreciated by artists worldwide. For example, Steven Spielberg, so impressed by Kroke’s concert, invited the band to perform in Jerusalem at the “Survivors Reunion” ceremony.
