Di Naye Kapelye
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Di Naye Kapelye is a Hungarian klezmer music group.
DNK plays old time Jewish music the way we imagine it was played in eastern Europe both before and after the Holocaust. Learning from Jewish people still living in the region, and from Gypsy musicians who played for them, DNK carries on a living tradition of music.
The band is based in Budapest, Hungary. Members include Bob Cohen (violin, mandolin, koboz, cumbus, flutes, Carpathian drum, vocals), Yankl Falk (clarinet, vocals), Ferenc Pribojszki (cimbalom, Carpathian drum, flutes), Antal Fekete (kontra), Gyula Kozma (bass, koboz, violin).
Di Naye Kapelye formed in Budapest in 1993. They perform frequently throughout Europe. Their lyrics are primarily in Yiddish and Hungarian.
