Klezmerduo is considered one of the finest interpreters of traditional klezmermusic in Denmark. Music which holds longing and sorrow but at the same time insisting on hope, joy and celebration.
More than 25 years ago Klezmerduo were amongst the first in Denmark to kick-start the revival of the sparkling and life-affirming Jewish folk music of Eastern Europe.
Nowadays they give more than 100 concerts every year in Denmark and abroad, where they have performed in most European countries and in Israel, USA, Argentina and Cuba.
Being rooted in the theatre, storytelling is often a part of the performances in schools, churches, festivals, theatreprojects, at culturel events and private parties. Their performances are often described as full of nerve, vitality and humour.
Renewing the tradition Henrik Bredholt has written new klezmertunes, some of them influenced by Danish folk music.
Klezmerduo has appeared in many radio- and TV programmes and won a first price at the Danish World Music festival.
They have released 4 CD`s and received several Music Award nominations.
