She'Koyokh Klezmer Ensemble
She'koyokh is a British band whose musicians have travelled through Israel, Romania, Russia, Serbia and Bulgaria, researched in depth and learned, rather than inherited their musics. Violinist Meg Hamilton, a graduate of Edinburgh University's Music Faculty was inspired by Nigel Osborne's stories of life and music in the Balkans as well as other parts of the world.
She'koyokh creates lively new compostions and innovative arrangements of traditional Eastern European melodies which have inspired dancing in the most conservative of concert halls. She'koyokh (literally "have strength") can be translated from the Yiddish as "nice one" and is renowned for its "musicianship, precision and general joie de vivre"
