Jewish Music
To complete her look at Jewish music, Verity Sharp explores the world of klezmer music. The klezmer musicians were itinerant bands who played for weddings and other celebrations in the old Ashkenazi tradition. This type of band is still popular today, and, with the help of DJ Richard Ford , Verity Sharp discovers how musicians are bringing this tradition right up to date.
