Mazel Tov Cocktail Party, conceived and created by clarinetist/composer David Krakauer and producer/multi-instrumentalist Kathleen Tagg, is a musical celebration rooted in Krakauer's signature Yiddish style while expanding it into a cross-cultural dance fusion. The project showcases an international crew, including Iranian percussionist Martin Shamoonpour, jazz bassist Jerome Harris, Montreal rapper Sarah MK, and electric guitarist Yoshie Fruchter. Says Krakauer and Tagg about the new project, "We wanted to take traditional, old dance forms and completely recast them to bring an overt message of tolerance and celebration of our shared humanity.
