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.
