About the Artist
From Both Ends of the Earth began as a trio with three of Canada's finest musicians meeting in a cross-genre project: folk musician and banjo/string master Daniel Koulack from the Klezmer group Finjan on bass, jazz pianist, composer and New Music performer Marilyn Lerner, and Russian migr jazz and classical saxophonist Sasha Boychouk on clarinet, sax and sopilka.

This group was formed with an interest in interpretations of traditional Yiddish and Ukrainian music in a modern light. After a series of highly successful concerts in Winnipeg, the group was expanded to include vocalist David Wall (formerly of the Bourbon Tabernacle Choir) and percussionist Rick Lazar, both of whom are well versed in both Yiddish and contemporary music.

This now collaborative project combines the rich and varied musical backgrounds of all these musicians: jazz, folk, R&B, Klezmer and Ukrainian.

Featuring: Marilyn Lerner - piano Daniel Koulack - bass Sasha Boychouk - soprano saxophone, clarinet, sopilka David Wall - vocals Rick Shadrach Lazar - percussion
