Europa, the place where klezmer originated, is at the heart of KlezFactor's next project.  Bandleader Mike Anklewicz is currently in the process of composing new, exciting music based on the extensive repertoire of traditional klezmer music.  Europa has Anklewicz going back to the roots of klezmer and bringing it together with the diverse sounds that he heard living in cosmopolitan city of Toronto.

KlezFactor's third album, Europa, will be recorded in Europe and released in 2012.  It will feature a group of outstanding international musicians who now call Berlin their home. 

The European version of KlezFactor features (l-r):

Raul Marcos - bass
Mike Anklewicz - saxophone and clarinet
Dea Szucs - violin
Marino Colina - drums
Luigi Gallucci - guitar
