Live session, in the final half hour of the show: Andy
Statman Trio,
with bassist Jim Whitney and percussionist Larry Eagle.
Brilliant clarinetist and mandolinist Andy
Statman is a musical visionary on two fronts: Following his 1960s
apprenticeship with mandolin master David Grisman, Statman helped redefine
bluegrass as a member of the 70s "newgrass" band Country Cookin' with
Tony Trischka.
And he was one of the leading lights in the klezmer music revival of the same
era, prized pupil the legendary klezmer clarinetist Dave Tarras. Tarras so
adored Statman that he bequeathed his instruments to Andy when he died.
Statman has two excellent new cds, one representing each of the major strains
in his music: the bluegrassy / rootsy "East Flatbush Blues"
and "Awakening from
Above", an exploration of Chassidic Jewish music (both available from cdroots.com).
The Andy Statman Trio plays most Mondays and Thursdays at the Charles Street Synagogue, Charles
Street at West Fourth Street in Greenwich Village at 8:30 pm. Info here: http://www.andystatman.org/SeeDerechAmuno.htm
