Klezmer Company Jazz Orchestra (KCJO) is a cross-genre ensemble that defies classification. Inspired by Saul Steinberg: A Writer Who Draws, this evening’s concert will reflect the music played in New York City in the early to mid-20th century. KCJO will perform a mixture of genres including Klezmer music (Jewish folk music), Romanian Bulgars, Broadway, and swing tunes.

 KCJO continues to evolve by embracing tradition and imagination with a roster of accomplished jazz musicians. Founded by Aaron Kula, KCJO debuted in 1997 with a mission to re-imagine vintage music from various genres through stylized arrangements and improvisation. Over time, the ensemble expanded its repertoire with over 300 transformed works from jazz, Broadway, American folk songs, Klezmer, Yiddish theater, Latin Jazz, Mediterranean, and classical music.
