While their name is derived from a type of viola used to accompany Tsigane vocalists, the trio re-creates the traditional sounds of cymbaloms and percussion on guitar, accordion, and clarinet.
Bratsch was formed in 1975 by guitarist Dan Gharibian and violinist Bruno Girard. Gharibian, who was raised in an Armenian home, was inspired by the Armenian, Russian, Greek and Oriental music favored by his grandparents. Although he played with teen-aged rock bands, he became fascinated with the music of Django Reinhardt at the age of 14. Girard, who studied violin at the age of nine, refused to read music, preferring to play by memory. After receiving a degree in biology, he spent a decade working in science while playing music part-time. Although they initially mixed a global range of musical styles including Arabic and South African music, Bratsch soon shifted their focus to gypsy jazz. The group also features accordion player François Castiello and clarinet player Nano Peylet.
Bratsch have taken the music of the European Gypsies and turned it into something all their very own, bringing it to life with masterly skill in their atmospheric and compact concerts. Their music brings new vitality to both the traditions of Eastern Europe and the roots of "Tsigane Jazz", as made world famous by Django Reinhardt and Stephane Grapelli. With great emotion, poignant melodies and subtle arrangements, they create a unique acoustic music, which, for years, has been enthralling both the French audiences and the press in equal measure. Their first live album is a rare document, recording their very first German concert.
"These vagabonds carry the nostalgia of Eastern Europe in their bundles, the vibrancy of the Mediterranean, the dexterity of the Gypsies and the irony of the Jews. Music without frontiers." (Le Monde)
"A wondrous journey from West to East with a band of joyously abandoned nomads, who poke fun at all restraints. Whether the tunes they play are Gypsy, Russian, Armenian, or Yiddish, or their own original songs, they have the audience on its feet, shouting for more." (L’Express)
"The music of Bratsch is vital, lyrical, raw and romantic, but never sentimental and certainly never saccharine." (plärrer)

I love Mitsou's voice in this version. It goes straight to the heart. Does anyone know the exact lyrics she is singing in this version as it is different to Goran Bregovic's version. If anyone from the Romani/Gypsy community could kindly put up the Romani lyrics with the translation I would be very grateful and appreciative as it is my favourite song in the world!
Inga Peck
There are some lyrics with translation in Wikipedia.

Les poils qui se hérissent d'émotion sur tout le corps, une larme au coin de l’œil, une des meilleures versions, merci une fois encore aux Bratsch ! 40 ans de voyages et de musiques, ça laisse rêveur !
Gerardo Moonshine
unbelievable voice - you can't find more emotion in another song
Anna K
This is the best version of this song. It fully conveys the emotions of the innocent people on the train going to concentration camp . So sad it is still happening around the world . Wondering if there are names of the lyrics and music? I know this song for a while and keep listening to various versions . This gets to me the hardest way

Nous nous sommes marié sur cette chanson. Je ne suis pas Gitans , ni Tziganes et pourtant je suis un enfant de la route dans mon âme. Pour moi c'est plus qu'un partage .. Elle existe sous mille variantes à découvrir .. le texte ?
