Who’s posting these tunes?

I play fiddle, concertina, piano, viola, and sometimes viola with two bands in central North Carolina, near RDU and the Research Triangle (actually closer to Chapel Hill and Hillsborough than Durham, but anyway, central). You can see these two wedding ensembles at our site Wedding Music in North Carolina...

One is Mappamundi, which means "Map of the World" and which plays popular wedding music of Western and Eastern Europe, Jewish traditions (klezmer, yiddish, hebrew, israeli, sephardic, songs in Ladino) and American swing tunes for dancing and a little bit of Hispanic music as well.

The other is the Pratie Heads, a duo specializing in music of the British Isles (Celtic, Irish, Scottish, English) and early America - but recently branching out into many other traditions as well!

Lustige Khsidim: a classic klezmer tune for weddings

This is one of the best klezmer tunes for weddings, I especially love it as a prelude. First, the solo viola version; second, my band Mappamundi with Dave DiGiuseppe on accordion having some fun with it.
