| Fanfara Kalashnikov - Balkan Speed Brass | | |
|
Fanfara Kalashnikov, originally from the region of Moldau in North East Romania, is a famous extravaganza of brass music. Since they were children the musicians have been playing at family and village celebrations, including weddings, birthdays and naming ceremonies. | |

Fanfara Kalashnikov - Balkan Speed Brass | |
|
Fanfara Kalashnikov learned from the cradle to play an extraordinary mixture of speed brass in the Balkan-Oriental Style, with strong jazz and funk influences.
Fanfara Kalashnikov plays klezmer, bossa, polka, waltz, flamenco and even mambo in the Balkan style. Their music is an extremely modern interpretation of centuries-old music traditions; however as most of the band members are under 30 years old, their sound reflects not only the Romani nomad culture, but also a variety of fresh and quirky influences.
Since early 2007, this collection of enthusiastic, exceptional musicians has been constantly delighting audiences in concerts, festivals and private events outside of Romania, blowing upon horns, trumpets and a tuba and delighting audiences at sweat-inducing tempos of well over 200 beats per minute.
Fanfara Kalashnikov goes pop!
The ensemble appeared as a horde of brass playing vampires in the video “Frauen und Männer" by Berlin punk combo Panda, they jammed with Mono & Nikitaman and Rupa & The April Fishes, worked with Beats Antique, sound artist Arto Lindsay and New York ska legend Vic Ruggiero (The Slackers), blew the wedding march for Balkan R’n’B queen Miss Platnum, and performed in the supporting program for Germany’s number one dancehall act, Seeed.
Recently the youngest of all Brass Balkan Orchestras played a bombastic cover version of the 2Raumwohnung-single "Wir werden sehen".
One of the most energetic, surprising and exciting contemporary music projects from Eastern Europe is currently developing some of the hottest, freshest, and wildest brass sounds ever heard. Who wouldn’t dance on the tables to these rhythms?
