Notes
Just two weeks before this CD was to be officially released, German Goldenshteyn died unexpectedly of a heart attack at the age of 71. In the interim, the recording has garnered much critical and popular acclaim around the world. Ladies and gentlemen, this CD is the product of the sheer joy, enthusiasm, and fun that can only come from cutting short lunches and dinners for four intense days, and sneaking into a hotel room with some of the world's greatest klezmorim to just sit, roll tape, and play. And I mean "play" in every ear-to-ear-grinning, schoolyard-giddy sense of the word. Yes, it was at the 21st annual KlezKamp festival in the Catskills that eight brave souls volunteered their precious time to pay homage to a true living master - klezmer clarinetist German Abramovich Goldenshteyn. Scheduling recording sessions around our teaching duties (read: in lieu of meals) we commandeered a room closed for repairs and set up our makeshift recording studio (so makeshift, in fact, that when Cookie's violin needed more isolation - we moved her into the bathroom!) Just listen to Hank's banjo act as a snare drum to Aaron's poyk, or how Susan's trumpet trades licks with Cookie's fiddle and Josh's accordion. No. Listen to the moment in "Tserenkutsa" (Track 16) when Rubinchik's tuba stinger catches German off-guard and triggers his helpless laughter. (What's really great is that, after some vodka and lunch at German's place in Sheepshead Bay, I played him the rough mix and he laughed at exactly the same point, in exactly the same way. "Oh, that Marik," he said as he giggled and shook his index finger.) By no means shall I attempt to provide a full biography of the guest of honor, but for the uninitiated, German Goldenshteyn brings with him a repertoire and a performance style missing in American klezmer music. Born in 1934, he lost his parents in the Holocaust and after the war, he and his siblings entered an orphanage in Odessa. As a young man, German successfully auditioned for the army band school, after which, he spent 10 years playing in military orchestras and completing his service. German later studied at a technical institute in Kiev, earning an engineering degree, and became a machinist in the town of Mohyliv-Podilskyi in Moldavia. It was there that he met some older musicians at a Jewish wedding, and had another life-changing audition: the clarinetist of the wedding band handed him his horn and commanded, 'play.' As a result, from the mid 1950's until he came to the United States in 1994, German played thousands of simchas. He learned melodies quickly, but found he could not retain too many simultaneously. So, every time he learned a new song, he would write it down so as not to forget it. Over time, German managed 'not to forget' more than 800 melodies, most of which have never been heard on this side of the pond. The 20 songs we present here make up one-fortieth (!) of German's repertoire, all of which will be published in new editions as part of our ongoing documentation of German's unique catalog of music. On the topic of the recording, I have a few remarks. Though two clarinetists are credited, almost all of the time you are listening exclusively to German. What you are hearing is live in the purest sense: no rehearsing, no arranging, no overdubbing, and, at most, two or three takes on any tune (to be fair, an "arrangement," as well as a chord progression, would materialize by the second take). German's breathtaking phrasing, time placement, improvisations and variations in navigating the melody, remind me of the great clarinetist Sid Beckerman, with whom I also had the great privilege of studying at KlezKamp, and who also received most of his training on the bandstand. In fact, Sid's great recording 'Klezmer Plus!' was recorded very much the same way we did ours. We hope this recording will bring you some of the joy that playing German's music has brought us; and that it will bring German some of the recognition
