Klingt wie Night Ark oder Rabih Abou-Khalil aus seiner Frühphase
und ist für Liebhaber arabischer, türkischer, griechischer
oder armenischer Musik genauso interessant wie
für Klezmerfans. Auch sind wir sicher, daß Yinons
Musik den Geschmack der orientalischen Tänzerinnen
trifft (siehe seine Zusammenarbeit mit O.F.Tekbilek).
Im Moment können wir uns gar nicht satt hören
an der (brillant aufgenommenen) Anpressung,
die seit heute vorliegt. Überzeugt Euch selbst:

Simply music - that's what occures to Yinon Muallem's mind if you ask him
about what's driving him round. He may be right - from his personal view.
But for the listener it’s much more, and it’s for sure nothing simple.
Yinon Muallem was born in Israel to a family of Iraqi origin.
Playing Middle Eastern percussion instruments,
he developed his own style very soon. Among others,
he was and is currently working with
Ross Daly, Alim Gazimov and Omar Faruk Tekbilek.
Since 2002 he has been living and working in Istanbul.
"Klezmer for the Sultan" could be described as a result of Yinon’s
reception of and occupation with the variety and great legacy of
Turkish music with all its different flavors. It's an occupation not only
of a gifted instrumentalist but of a remarkable composer as well.
His playing and his compositions are influenced
by Arabic, Indian, Balkan, Persian, Jewish and Jazz music -
all of which he was exposed to in his youth.
On this recording he is supported by a group of musicians who
work with him in different formations - be it the classical ensemble
"Istanbul Sazandeleri" or the "Café Istanbul" project.
