Ensemble M ’ chaiya home page

The Ensemble M’chaiya (tm) is Chicagoland’s original revival Klezmer and Sephardic band. Whatever your needing music for —festivals, fine arts concerts, private parties, school programs, lectures or master classes — this band has something for you. This page provides basic information about the group as well as links to more information, including videos and recordings for your enjoyment. The group blends Trad Roots and Gypsy Beats to move your heart and feet and may be the only Klezmer band that uses a Bulgarian end-blown flute for its lead instrument. Their unique sound is further shaped by the use of mandolin, violin, guitar, and Balkan percussion. Founded in 1983, the band is booked by Modal Music, Inc. (tm) – www.modalmusic.com
