Bossa nova is a genre I know somewhat, but not in-depth at all. I'm a fan of Bebel Gilberto and I believe she fits in the genre at least somewhat.
I've never even heard of 'klesmer', so that one is going to be particularly interesting.
Klezmer is Jewish party music played small bands. What I posted is traditional Klezmer from back in the day, but there are also modern bands like the Klezmatics who do some cool stuff by adding in some other influences.

I second Frownland's recommendation of Huun-Huur-Tu for Tuvan throat singing. They did an album with a group of Bulgarian singers called Fly, Fly My Sadness that is amazing.

Also, if you're going to be checking out Bossa Nova, I highly recommend giving a listen to the album Wave by Antonio Carlos Jobim.
