Jazz / World Music / International Jazz / Klezmer / Jewish Music / Middle Eastern Traditions
Though the label "Klezmer" may indicate a certain direction, the music of Kroke is not necessarily linked to any of the styles nowadays connected with this concept. Using traditional material as the foundations on which to build ingenuous arrangements and improvisations, exploiting their previous experience, transmitting the profundity of man’s feelings and nature, Kroke creates new, unique compositions as well as a sound which is thus far unheard in Jewish music.
The release of a first cassette entitled KROKE in 1993 led to numerous invitations to festivals and concerts all over Europe. Beside their regular concerts in Cracow the group started to tour extensively. Among many other successful concerts there were highlights like the E.B.U. Contemporary Folk Festival (Roskilde/Denmark) in June ’96 and the WOMAD Festival (Reading/U.K.) in July ’97. At the same time the group intensified their work on the improvement of their technique and - through study of the sacred books - investigated the tradition and philosophy of the Jewish nation.
The mystical atmosphere of Kazimierz, the unshaken dignity of its six-hundred-year-old tradition, reflection on the sufferings of the past, on the present, on hope and trust in man, as well as common creative work found their outcome in the album entitled TRIO (Oriente RIENCD04), which was released 1996 in Berlin/Germany.
Since then KROKE toured all Europe and released seven albums with ORIENTE Musik.
In 1995 I saw Kroke perform in a very small Krakow cafe. I had just returned from a pilgrimage to the site of Auschwitz and was in a state of shock. Maybe that explains the eerie and hypnotic affect this synthesized klezmer had on me, but I swear, midway through dinner when Kroke began to play the room went absolutely silent. People stopped eating, people stopped talking, and for over an hour Tomasz Kukurba created a spell with his rarified violin artistry. Jerzy Bawol on accordian and Tomasz Lato on bass added depth and texture. Not exactly klezmer, not exactly world music, but I have hung onto the little cassette I bought that night, their first recording in 1993, simply entitled Kroke. I thought I would never again meet up with this band. Alas, their first recording is out of print, but many of the same songs appear on Trio. Now you can experience Kroke outside of Poland.
