On her latest recording for Traditional Crossroads, Margot Leverett and the Klezmer Mountain Boys, Margot and her all-star band of bluegrass and klezmer players search for the missing musical link between the Shenendoah mountains and the Shtetl. Margot talks about the fine art of playing fiddle tunes on the clarinet and introduces tracks from the CD as well as some personal favorites by other artists.
