Info for Tsuzamen: Armenian, Yiddish and Gypsy music



Tsuzamen is a formidable testimony against the forgetting of genocides. That of the Jews, the Armenians and the gypsies, whose repertoires the Sirba Octet wanted to combine so that fraternity would be embodied in music.

If Yiddish music accompanies celebrations and rituals and gives rhythm to life's events, Armenian music, a mixture of folk and sacred music, evokes spirituality, philosophy and lyricism. Gypsy music, never absent from the ensemble's programmes, has been nourished by the music of the natives that the Roma, Gypsies and Manouches used to play alongside in their nomadic lives.

It is the echo of these cultures that the Sirba Octet assembles in an unprecedented way, bringing peoples and histories into dialogue by taking us on a journey from one language to another with virtuosity and sensitivity.

Sirba Octet
Founded by the violinist Richard Schmoucler and featuring seven more musicians drawn from the ranks of the most prestigious classical formations, the Sirba Octet has presented an original reinterpretation of the Yiddish and Gypsy repertory since 2003. The unique nature of the project championed by the Sirba Octet places it in a musical universe all its own that belongs to an entirely new genre, that of classical world music.
