I just thought about whom I would like to invite for a concert if I was and Munich and we had funds; it is pretty difficult there to attrackt people to non-Western music, so I guess I would invite the band Kroke. I don't know if you've heard about them: they're a Jewish band (violin/viola, double bass, accordion) and their tunes are not entirely Western yet at the same time sound very familiar (there are some videos on youtube, for example http://www.youtube.com/watchv=UkBVMiR9tbk&feature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U-2QO1iDcTY&feature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5RFnBYxb8BY&feature=related )
They've also recorded an album with Nigel Kennedy in 2005, so they might be interesting for students of Western art music, too. I heard them 2001 in Cracow in a small cafe and they're just amazing!
