about

“Kesselgarden” was a term used by Yiddish-speaking Jews to refer to Castle Garden, located on the southern tip of Manhattan, where Eastern European Jewish immigrants were processed between 1855 and 1892. It later came to mean any situation characterized by chaos and confusion (“There was a sale at Bamberger’s today, and it was a real Kesselgarden!”). We chose this name to honor the people who brought Klezmer music to this country and because Klezmer itself is a kind of musical Kesselgarden. Itinerant musicians traveled form shtetl to shtetl throughout Eastern Europe and incorporated a rich variety of folk idioms into their repertoires, giving us the precious tradition we know today as Klezmer.
