"Retenishn (Mysteries) is an arrangement of five Klezmer melodies originally written for the Klezmer band, The Kugels.

The arrangements were made at the request of Helene Pohl and Jian Liu whose consummate performances were an inspiration for this work.
Writing Klezmer tunes is not something I ever expected to do as part of my composing life but they have become a lovely and intriguing challenge, and fun to play intermingled with traditional Klezmer tunes.
In these arrangements the violin has the original melody and the piano part is newly composed." ~ Ross Harris
