Yiddish Summer Weimar - Adv Yiddish instrumental Workshop, 4-12 Jul 2010

Yiddish Summer Weimar 2010
Advanced Yiddish instrumental (klezmer) music (topic: non-dance genres) : July 4-12

Faculty: Alan Bern, Stuart Brotman, Zev Feldman, Steven Greenman, Joshua Horowitz, Cookie Segelstein, Michael Winograd + artists-in-residence.
Compared to klezmer music played for dancing, the non-dance genres are much less well known today. Many were connected to rituals and Yiddish cultural practices that did not survive the 20th century. more
