Pressbox (Press Release) -
Ulterground Records is excited to announce the release of “Sei Freilech”, a new single by Baruch Chauskin.
Sei Freilech is a product of a long-time creative collaboration between Baruch Chauskin and Stefan Kristinkov, a composer, music arranger, producer and a highly sought-after clarinet player, based in New York City. The skillful and sophisticated arrangement of the song that Stefan created, was inspired by the style of a legendary group, The Freilachs, active in the 70s and 80s in North-Eastern Europe. Baruch’s extensive expertise in Yiddish and Klezmer folklore shines in full in this fun and life-affirming rendition of this rare and often overlooked song.
Sei Freilech is available on all major streaming and download platforms starting April 10th, 2024.
