Ensemble Noisten

The Ensemble combines elements of Klezmer music with other genres, like flamenco, classical music, Tamil and Turkish music, jazz and other influences, in a humorous and charming, but at the same time sincere and respectful way. We combine the traditional with improvisation and our own compositions, making Klezmer music world music.
