Violinist Ben Sutin, and his septet Klazz-Ma-Tazz was originally scheduled to bring their unique blend of jazz and klezmer music to New York's acclaimed music venue, The City Winery on November 29, 2015. Due to unavoidable circumstances, the show has been rescheduled for Sunday, February 14, 2016 at 11:00 a.m. This Valentines Day event is part of the Winery's Klezmer Brunch series. In light of the holiday, the musical program will feature new arrangements of love songs from around the world, selections from Fiddler On The Roof, as well as a display of some of Klazz-Ma-Tazz's newest original material and selections from their debut album, Tangibility, released in September, 2015 on OneTrickDog* Records. The album, which features some of Sutin's original work, has been praised for its dynamic composition, its improvisation, multi-cultural spirit and sense of humor. Tracks from Tangibility are currently being played in rotation on FM stations across the U.S. While rooted in jazz idioms, the music reflects influences from around the world, particularly from the diverse ethnic backgrounds of the group's members. Fred Stal (RG Magazine), described the sold-out CD release sets at The Cornelia Street Cafe: "Going in, I knew it would be a great experience, but the performance far exceeded my expectations. This band is honest in their approach to what they do, paying an eclectic homage to their roots, which encompass a broad variety of elements and styles of music. Wild, yet reserved, the music of Klazz- Ma-Tazz will surprise you, excite you, and calm you, all in one sitting.
