The oud and harmonica are reunited at last. Fenci’s Blues, Shtreiml’s third album, features the incomparable oud playing and beautiful tenor vocals of Ismail Fencioglu along with the uniquely creative harmonica playing of Jason Rosenblatt. With echoes of Istanbul throughout, Shtreiml and Ismail shift from virtuosic original compositions to haunting folksongs and from traditional Turkish instrumentals to adaptations of Eastern-European Jewish folk melodies. This album is a must for any lover of new Middle-Eastern and/or Jewish music.
Featured musicians include Thierry Arsenault (drums, percussion), Ismail Fencioglu (oud, vocals), Rachel Lemisch (trombone), Jason Rosenblatt (harmonica, piano) and Adam Stotland (bass).
