Summary

Host Lenny Vaughn explores how the clarinet became klezmer music's defining voice through the "krekhts"—a sobbing technique imitating cantorial prayer. From 19th-century Eastern European shtetls to 1920s New York recording studios, discover how Jewish musicians transformed this instrument into a vessel for joy, mourning, and survival, bending notes until they spoke Yiddish.
