As if to keep one foot in the 20th century and its klezmer and jazz music, the Gefilte Swing was formed in December 1999. It brings together a singer and four instrumentalists: clarinet-saxophone, trombone, guitar and double bass. Then the group grew and many musicians came to bring their energy. The sound has also changed, from the gypsy to a spirit closer to klezmer orchestras and small swing formations of the thirties.
