Description
Violinists Jake Shulman-Ment and Abigale Reisman joined forces to record Two Strings, a brand-new powerhouse string-band album that unites their stunning virtuosity, deep roots in traditional Yiddish and Eastern European musical idioms, and a fearless sense of exploratory improvisation. The resulting sound is riveting and authentically individual, equally at home under a Jewish wedding canopy, in a grand concert hall, or in a drunken tavern. They are joined by longtime collaborators Pete Rushefsky on tsimbl and Raffi Boden on cello. Helen and Irving Sunshine Memorial Concert YIDSTOCK 2025 is sponsored by WAMC Northeast Public Radio and the Massachusetts Cultural Council.
