This 5-piece ensemble from Sacramento has been entertaining Northern California audiences since 1995. The band has issued two critically acclaimed CDs, The Flower of Berezin (1998) and And I in the Uttermost West (2005), and are currently working on their third. They have defined what may be called "the Sacramento sound" in klezmer and Sephardic Jewish music, using a particularly infectious blend of strings and reeds. In the words of one reviewer, the Freilachmakers' music "bubbles with exuberance and a great sense of fun", their playing "highly viruostic, yet subtle".
