Andy Statman Plays Jazz version of Modzitz Chasidim Melody

The Heichal HaNegina blog recently posted this wonderful video of Andy Statman (clarinet), with Jim Whitney (bass) and Larry Eagle (drums) playing a house concert in Nashville, TN. Statman is playing a jazz version of a traditional Modzitz Chassidic melody. Modzitz is a Chassidic dynasty known for it's nigunim. The Modzitzer's have a web page with lots of their traditional nigunim. They're well worth the listen. I immediately recognized and was signing along with Ani Monim.
