Treat your father ( or yourself) to a trip down memory lane this Father's Day, June 15, at the Klezmer Brunch at Tonic. Philadelphia area tenor, Richard Lenatsky, will perform oft-neglected folk and art songs made popular by such past luminaries of the Jewish music scene as Seymour Rechtzeit, Ben Bonus, Sidor Belarsky, and Jan Peerce. Let's keep the songs and the memory of the artists who performed them alive.
Richard will be accompanied on piano by well-known musician and Yiddish teacher (Uof Penn), Alexander (Sender) Botwinik. Show times are 1:30 and 3pm, $10 per show or $15 for both.
Who is Richard Lenatsky? Residing in West Chester, PA, I've been performing Yiddish art songs in the Phila. area and Amherst, MA, for about 10 years.

One of the best Klezmer/yiddish culture camps in North America is the annual "KlezKanada", held each years in the spectacular Laurentian mountains north of Montreal. Organized, in part, by the folks in Brave Old World, the program is always spectacular.
Events include lectures, a mini film festival, and of course, intensive workshops in singing, klezmer music, theatre, and dance. The "Kidz for Klez" program is also great. This is the best summer camp in the world (in fact, the event is hosted at a Jewish summer camp). Register early to get the best bunks.
Although most events start on the 20th, today is the day to arrive, get oriented, and get in some preliminary jamming.
For further information, visit the site website, www.klezkanada.com

Violinist Alicia Svigals, who is considered by many to be the world's leading klezmer fiddler, was a founder of the renowned Jewish roots groups the Klezmatics, and of her current band, the all-female Mikveh. As a musician and composer, she has worked with Itzhak Perlman, the Kronos Quartet, playwrights Tony Kushner and Eve Ensler, Allen Ginsburg, Led Zeppelin's Robert Plant and Jimmy Page, Hasidic superstar Avraham Fried, and singer/songwriter Debbie Friedman.
She has been at the forefront of the Klezmer revival, rediscovering and reinventing the sound of the Klezmer fiddle, the central instrument in klezmer music before the Holocaust. A musician and composer, Svigals is widely acclaimed for her virtuosic technique and lyricism.
Svigals will be joined by an old-world string band made up of Boston's finest klezmer musicians, including members of the Klezmer Conservatory Band and of Andy Statman's ensemble: Jim Guttman, bass; Miriam Rabson and Rohan Gregory, violins; Pete Rushefsky, tsimbl; and Larry Eagle, percussion.

This innovative ensemble from Cracow, Poland takes the traditions of klezmer music, with all its wild and festive roots, and turns it into thoughtful and virtuostic performance art. In an era in which many bands exaggerate and vulgarize, this group is headed in the other direction, creating original compositions and intricate inprovisations based on particular elements of klezmer. This will be their first time in Boston! "Of all the ensembles that have emerged in recent years to explore the meaning of klezmer in a new era, few have reached as high as the Cracow Klezmer Band, and fewer still have attained comparable results."- Chicago Tribune.
The Cracow Klezmer Band is: Jaroslaw Bester, accordion; Jaroslaw Tyrala, violin; Oleg Dyyak, accordion, clarinet and percussion; and Wojciech Front, double bass.

Formed by a group of music "all-stars" with an interest in interpreting traditional Yiddish music in a modern light, From Both Ends of the Earth transforms infinitely rich traditional music into music for today - thrilling, rhythmic, vibrant and timeless.
This collaborative project combines the rich and varied musical backgrounds of all these musicians: jazz, folk, R&B and Klezmer. The group's goal is to find personal expression through the music of their forebears, bringing all they know as musicians to this traditional music, to re-discover the spirit of the music and to create, not re-create.
"From Both Ends of the Earth is nothing less than a startling example of what happens when good musicians have fun with serious ideas" - Bartley Kives, Winnipeg Free Press

In a recent concert review, The Chicago Tribune proclaimed, "Of all the ensembles that have emerged in recent years to explore the meaning of klezmer in a new era, few have reached as high as the Cracow Klezmer Band, and fewer still have attained comparable results. Every composition whether exploring ebullient, age-old dance forms or investigating ancient cantorial melody painted an alluring portrait of Eastern European life and culture." The Cracow Klezmer Band is: Jaroslaw Bester, accordion; Jaroslaw Tyrala, violin; Oleg Dyyak, accordion, clarinet and percussion; and Wojciech Front, double bass.

The Casco Bay Tummlers will be performing a concert of emotionally charged klezmer music, danceable folk melodies of Eastern Europe, Yiddish "favorites" and original tunes at The Saco River Grange Hall on Saturday, October 11th. Back by popular demand - this is their third annual appearance at the Saco Grange. For those who haven't been there, the Grange is a wonderful, friendly room with great acoustics, right on the Saco River and just a 20 minute drive from Portland.
Over the last year the Tummlers have been working with a new clarinetist, Steve Gruverman. Steve has an extensive background in international folk dance music. As a result, the Tummlers have been broadening their repertoire, learning music which is closely related to klezmer and comes from countries such as Macedonia and Bulgaria. They've also added some beautiful Ladino songs from the Jewish community of Salonika in Greece which feature Julie Goell on vocals. The concert will include original music by bandmembers Carl Dimow and Hayes Porterfield, lots of joyful klezmer standards and the classic Yiddish theater showstopper, "Roumainia, Roumainia," sung by the delightful Nancy 3. Hoffman.
The concert is at 7:30 pm, $10 for adults, $8 for children and seniors. Call the Grange at 929-6472 for reservations and directions, or get tickets at the door.

Han har studeret klezmer i USA og indgår herhjemme i mange konstellationer, -bl.a. med sit eget band "The Premium Klezmer Kentucky Boys" og i "Copenhagen Klezmer".

Der er hermed lagt op til en eksplosiv aften, hvor gnisterne nemt vil kunne komme til at fyge om ørerne på de tilstedeværende tilhørere.

It is a Balkan Wedding Band Celebration!
You have no idea how good these guys are:
Ivo Papasov, the Bulgarian wedding music/jazz genius, back in the States for the first time in years, along with Yuri Yunakov and some astounding friends. I've just been at the Boston concert and I am blown away. I've been a fan of the CDs for years, but live? LIVE? Man. These cats wail. These cats change meter, and they play so that people can dance. The singer is first-rate, as well.

Helsinki Klezmer Festival, the festival of traditional instrumental music of the Yiddish-speaking people is organized for the third time already in Finland. Savoy Theatre as its venue, the event aims to make klezmer music better known in general and to give people a possibility to get to know one of the Europes most interesting cultural traditions. Klezmer music has its roots in the medieval Europe, where the Jewish people of the Eastern Europe traveled from town to town in order to play in weddings and other events. By the end of the 18th century klezmer music had become a well-developed music style, gathering influences from the Jewish culture and from outside of it.
Nowadays klezmer music is played almost all around the world, but mostly in the United States and in Europe. Klezmer music is constantly evolving and mixing with other music styles such as jazz and pop music. In order for the style to survive it is still important that there are also bands trying to find out the origins of klezmer music and ways to maintain it as authentic as possible. The authenticity of the music will not bring back the culturally rich community that once lived in the Eastern Europe but will give the listeners a possibility to get a bit closer look at the life of the society that lived at that time.

Under the Umbrella of Terezin – Music Against the Odds
Miriam Brickman Piano, Lloica Czackis, mezzo soprano, Rabbi Albert Friedlander and Evelyn Friedlander, Narrators, in conversation with Ronald Senator
That music and poetry of such stature was written and performed in concentration camps like Terezin is beyond comprehension. Rabbi Albert Friedlander, who wrote the Libretto, which uses liturgical texts and children’s poems from Terezin, and Evelyn Friedlander talk with Ronald Senator about Ronald’s Kaddish for Terezin, first performed in Canterbury Cathedral (1986). They play extracts from the CD of this performance. Miriam Brickman performs piano music by incarcerated composers, Krasa, Ullmann and Schulhoff. Lloica Czackis sings cabaret songs from the camp in the most fitting venue in the City which was bombed by the IRA and has opened its gates as a centre for reconciliation and peace.

As part of our ongoing A Glezele Tey series, Sholem Berger will read from and discuss his recently published Yiddish translation of the Dr. Seuss classic, "The Cat in the Hat" with Celeste Sollod. "Di Kats der Payats" is the first official translation of any of Dr. Seuss's books into Yiddish. Erica Brody notes in her review:
"With his puckish grin, pert red bow-tie and ever-perky whiskers, the Cat in the Hat is once again on the prowl, ready to rescue children from the doldrums of drizzly afternoons. Thanks to Berger's translation, Di Kats der Payats makes his entre into perfectly rhymed Yiddish and is likely to inspire warm, fuzzy feelings for the impish cat and perhaps for Yiddish itself." - Forward, September 5, 2003.
A Glezele Tey will be presented on Saturday, November 8 at 7:00 p.m., at The Jewish Community Center in Manhattan (334 Amsterdam Avenue at West 76th Street).

- Guests Aaron Alexander, Ori Kaplan, Ron Caswell, and more...
Alex Lubet writes to the Jewish-music list:
If you're anywhere near the Twin Cities, you may want to check out my
next gig 12/3, 730 pm, at Beth Jacob Synagogue in Mendota Heights, a
performance with my long-time collaborator, dancer/choreographer Judith
Brin-Ingber. I'll be doing my Ani Maamin and Maoz Tzur for guitar and
Shabbat Ha-Malkah for bass. Together, J and I will perform Hannelore
and our newest collaboration, Footnotes. Judith will perform Bari
Simone and Sarah, the latter featuring vocalist Amy (Yes, she's Jewish!)
Olson.
Most of the program is a tribute to Jewish women, a project-in-progress
that will eventually include exclusively original repertoire devoted to
our moms, sisters, partners, and female friends. Proud to say that the
dude of the duo came up with the idea (while watching a Seinfeld rerun
and getting tired of the way Jews are depicted in American pop culture
exclusively as something less than we are, a position I think hurts
women even more than men).

Miriam-Khaye Seigel presents a dynamic performance of Yiddish
songs on Saturday night, December 20, 2003 at 7:00 PM, at the
JCC in Manhattan, 334 Amsterdam Ave. (at West 76th). This
free concert is part of the series "A Glezele Tey", sponsored
by the Folksbiene Yiddish Theatre.
For most of its 33 years of existence the St. Louis Circle of Jewish Music has sponsored an annual Chanukah choral festival. This year we begin a new tradition in collaboration with the suburban University City Symphony Orchestra - a "Judas Maccabeus" sing-along. Taking place (this year) at United Hebrew Congregation on December 20th, the combined choirs of most of the city's Jewish congregations will collaborate with the Orchestra, directed by Dr. Leon Burke, III, with solos sung by members of the Circle. Audience members may purchase a score for $18 which serves as a ticket for this and all future years, and then may sing along with the on-bima choir.
In researching the program notes I've become further surprised at the story of Handel's writing such a Jewish oratorio. "Messiah" notwithstanding, the vast majority of Handel's oratorios are on subjects from Tanach - "Old Testament" to him - "Deborah," "Israel in Egypt," "Joseph and His Brethren," etc. And "Judas Maccabeus" goes even one step further by NOT being of O.T. provenance, and hence lacking even that relevance for Christians. Apparently there was a political metaphor - a recently suppressed revolution. But I prefer the apocryphal story that Handel was advised to compose for royalty and the aristocracy, but wanted to see seats filled in the theater, and so wrote for the Jews.

Once again, we return to Caffé Lena in Saratoga Springs, NY for the second night of Chanukah.

Subtitles will be provided for audience members not fluent in Yiddish.

Hip Hop Hoodíos
Dec. 31 - Montclair, NJ - First Night (New
Years show)
The upcoming New Years Eve and Jan. 3rd concerts from Latino-Jewish urban music collective Hip Hop Hoodos promise lots of booty-shaking and laughs alike. Comprised of bilingual musicians from Jewish/Latino backgrounds ("hoodo is a twist on the word "judio" - Spanish for "Jew"), the members of Hip Hop Hoodos are linked by a common love for Latin alternative music, or rock and rap "en Espanol". But don't call these guys the Jewish answer to Tenacious D or the Latino respuesta to the Beastie Boys: Hip Hop Hoodos are out to change the notions and preconceptions of Latin music entirely. Following the groups recent standing room-only concerts at Joes Pub and the Brooklyn Academy of Music (as well as packed dates in Chicago and LA), Los Hoodios perform at Makor in NYC on Saturday, Jan. 3rd, and also have a special New Years Eve date at First Night Montclair in New Jersey.

Adrienne Cooper, one of the great vocal interpreters of Yiddish music, Dan Rosengard, pianist/arranger, late of Saturday Night Live, & Frank London, famed trumpetter/Klezmatics/ All-Star Brass Band bring to life the extraordinary cabaret music of war-time Eastern Europe. In the Nazi-mandated ghettos during World War II, audiences gathered in makeshift clubs and theaters to hear newly-created songs, rooted in Jewish folk song, European cabaret, American jazz and Argentine tango. Jewish performers tuned these cosmopolitan songs in a local key: satirical and elegiac, political and personal, angry and heartsick, creating something scarcely conceivable: art at the edge of the abyss.

An "Old World" Klezmer Concert

Open Center
83 Spring St., NYC
(212) 219-2527
www.opencenter.org
Before the big klezmer bands of New York arose with their brass and clarinets, there were the archetypical Jewish orchestras of the old world, led by the fiddle and borne aloft by the otherworldly sounds of the harp-like "tsimbl", or Jewish hammered dulcimer. This evening, the world's leading klezmer fiddler, the renowned Alicia Svigals, co-founder of the legendary Klezmatics, presents a program of these ancient and ecstatic Jewish melodies, accompanied by "tsimbler" Pete Rushefsky, one of the few musicians in the world to have mastered this traditional instrument. Join these two great figures in the revival and revitalization of "Old World" Jewish music a week before Purim for a musical communion with beloved ghosts from this Eastern European past.

The GROYSER KONCERT is coming to Montreal.
A popular feature of the KlezKanada Festival of Yiddish/Jewish Music and Culture held annually in the Laurentians, the GROYSER KONCERT is relocating to Montréal and the first concert will take place Sunday, February 29 at the Monument National Theatre, 1182 Boulevard Saint-Laurent.
Three internationally acclaimed groups will headline the program: New York-based Brave Old World, which has stood at the forefront of the Klezmer revival around-the-world for over two decades; Beyond the Pale, a Toronto group that has been winning raves across North America for its contemporary approach to traditional Klezmer music; and Montreal’s Shtreiml, just back from a successful European tour that won raves for its Klezmer, gypsy and jazz music.
Broadway singing star Joanne Borts and Yaela Hertz, violinist and concertmaster emerita of the McGill Chamber Orchestra, will also be featured. Michael Wex, the celebrated author, raconteur and itinerant teacher of Yiddish, will be the MC.
Jointly sponsored by KlezKanada, the YM-YWHA Montreal Jewish Community Centres and the Saidye Bronfman Centre for the Arts, the GROYSER KONCERT signals the beginning of a collaborative relationship between the organizations, with the intent of creating a permanent base for Klezmer music in Montréal.
Proceeds help support KlezKanada’s unique youth scholarship fund and the cultural programming of Saidye Bronfman Centre for the Arts.
Patron tickets at $250 and Supporter tickets at $100 are available with partial tax receipts. General admission (Balcony seats) is $36 and tickets are on sale at the Saidye Bronfman Centre Box Office, 5170 Côte Ste-Catherine Road, or by telephone at (514) 739-7944.

Some would say Purim is a Jewish holiday about a queen in Persia who saved the Jews of her kingdom from a violently egotistical prime minister. Others would say Purim is a holiday about the masks people wear and how to get behind them. We say, its one of our favorite holidays well worth celebrating in the traditional ways
With music, dancing, and drinking.

The St. Louis Circle of Jewish Music will present its annual Cantor Edward R. Fogel Memorial Concert this coming Sunday afternoon, March 28th at 4:00 pm at B'nai El Congregation, 11411 North Outer Forty Drive in suburban St. Louis. Entitled "A Night at the Opera," it will contain solos and ensemble pieces from opera, operetta and even the movie of the same name, performed by the cantors, soloists, keyboard players and other musicians from most of the city's Reform and Conservative congregations.
Ed Fogel (zl) was hazzan of Congregation Shaare Emeth in St. Louis for many years. Born in Uzbekistan, he grew up in Toronto, and as a teenager hitch-hiked to New York to attend Hebrew Union College. He was hired by Congregation Shaare Emeth after graduation and ordination, and later earned a master's degree from St. Louis Conservatory of Music. He was a founding member of the St. Louis Circle of Jewish Music, and a past president of both the Circle and the American Conference of Cantors. In his long career he proved a versatile cantor, accompanying himself on the guitar, known as a comedian and as a teacher, he concertized and recorded extensively. He survived cancer in 1998, but passed away in 2002. Soon afterward the St. Louis Circle of Jewish Music voted to dedicate its annual spring concert to his memory.

I am doing another of my Clarinetrics performances, this time in a
double-bill with the very excellent Oen Kennedy. It will be at the
Congregational Church of West Medford, Saturday, April 3, at 8:00pm. The
church is located at 400 High St., West Medford and admission is by
donation. Call me at 781-648-4282 for information. The Labyrinth will be
open for walking or you can just listen to the music which will be
meditative but an unusual sort of meditative. Oen will not be doing his
regular singer-songwriter show but a set of meditative music on piano,
tongue drum, bells, maybe some singing and guitar. Who knows what the muse
will bring? I will be playing my clarinet with electronics, ala Robert
Fripp. Hopefully Oen and I will also play together. It will be a very
unique evening. Please come.
I will print some background info below in case you are interested in more.

You are invited to "Roots", a concert of songs written by composers of the
St. Petersburg Society, for voice, violin or viola and piano. The concert
is Sunday, April 4, at 18:00, at the Migdalei Hayam Hatichon
(Mediterranean Towers), Sireni 58, Kfar Saba.
The Saint Petersburg Society was a group of Jewish musicians who studied
at the St. Petersburg Moscow conservatories at the end of the 19th
century. These composers rediscovered their Jewish musical roots,
documented folk music from the Shtetl, and wrote arrangements and original
art songs in Yiddish. Most of these composers - the most notable of them
Joel Engel - migrated later to the US and Palestine, where they laid the
foundation for modern Israeli folk music.
The concert includes songs by Leo Low, Janot Roskin, A. Shitomirsky, and
Israel Brandmann. We will also perform songs by Chopin and Rachmaninoff.
Admission is free.

will present their original score to "Pass the Gravy," enlivening our rediscovery of the agile and inspired silent comedian Max Davidson. Davidson was extremely popular in the late 1920s when he starred in a number of shorts at the Hal Roach Studios, playing the roles of Jewish tailors, pawnbrokers, and junk dealers. Nearly forgotten today, Davidson infused American slapstick with agile antics and a unique brand of Eastern European moxie. The original score, which combines early Yiddish swing, klezmer, vintage "photoplay" music, and popular melodies, may be the first Yiddish-themed work in the emerging trend of accompanying silent films.

The Skatalites created Ska music in the early 1960's and were the house band for Studio One where all of the greats recorded including Bob Marley, Peter Tosh, Jimmy Cliff - everyone. Klezska takes klezmer and Jewish music and combines it with this traditional form of Ska (not to be confused with the 3rd wave or "Punk Ska" that one usually hears on the radio these days).

Still wanting more after this Sunday night's Northwest Folklife Balkan bash? Grab your latte, chase off that hangover and boogie the morning after to "Disciples of Goldenshteyn," a trio playing old-time Bessarabian Wedding Band music.
Andrew Ehrlich (violin), Milton From (clarinet) and Martin Morgenbesser (accordion) will wake you up with tunes we've learned from our beloved teacher and personal hero, clarinetist German Goldenshteyn. This lively and soulful traditional dance music blends Jewish, Moldovan, Roma, Romanian and Ukrainian influences into a heady Klezmer brew once performed throughout Bessarabia for weddings and communal celebrations.
"Disciples of Goldenshteyn" will perform at Northwest Folklife, Seattle Center, this Monday, Memorial Day, May 31st from 11:00 till 11:30 AM at the Exhibition Hall Lawn Stage.
To learn more about German Goldenshteyn and the music he plays go to Interview with a Bessarabian Klezmer, German Goldenstyn. German Goldenshteyn teaches every year at KlezKanada. Check it out! Learn from our master!

One of the best Klezmer/yiddish culture camps in North America is the annual "KlezKanada", held each years in the spectacular Laurentian mountains north of Montreal. Organized, in part, by the folks in Brave Old World, the program is always spectacular.
Events include lectures, a mini film festival, and of course, intensive workshops in singing, klezmer music, theatre, and dance. The "Kidz for Klez" program is also great. This is the best summer camp in the world (in fact, the event is hosted at a Jewish summer camp). Register early to get the best bunks.
Although most events start on Wednesday, the 25th, musicians should arrive this morning with the first workshops scheduled for this afternoon. Today is the day to arrive, get oriented, and get in some preliminary jamming.

'Avant-premiere' of Z'vi, an opera-in-progress by Richard Teitelbaum. It is based on the true story of Shabbetai Z'vi, a 17th-century rabbi in the Ottoman Empire who was widely hailed throughout Europe and the Middle East as the Messiah. After adopting Islam in addition to Judaism, he went on to develop a syncretic faith and practice incorporating elements of both religions. The opera explores issues of cross-cultural engagement, tolerance, dialog, and understanding. Performers include: Cantor Jacob Ben-Zion Mendelson (tenor), Omar Faruk Tekbilek (ney, voice, zurna, percussion), David Krakauer (clarinet, bass clarinet), Richard Teitelbaum (sampling keyboard) and others.

Now in its third year, the "Rozhinke Retreat" is an effort to preserve and continue the great Cantorial art tradition of yesteryear. At the turn of the Millenium, we have seen many Jewish cultural revivals: Yiddish, Klezmer... and Hazzanut is due a revival of its own. This retreat has its roots in the great Cantorial stylings of such renowned Hazzanim as Yossele Rosenblatt, David Kousevitsky, Zavel Kwartin and many others—with an emphasis not on historical examination, but rather living reproduction of an art form which is so intrinsically Jewish, and so passionate, so filled with pathos and sweetness, that it can only be described as "Rozhinke"—the sweet sound of raisins and almonds.
The internationally beloved Russian-Jewish singing star Svetlana will appear in concert at New York's hottest World Music club Satalla (37 West 26th St, between 6th Ave. & Broadway) at 7:30 PM on June 7th, 2005. Tickets are $15. To order please call 212-576-1155.

Vampire Suit draws on Jay Vilnai's unique musical heritage as a Russian- Romanian-Polish descendant raised in Jerusalem around a mix of contemporary and traditional Jewish and Arab music, with a soul for rock n'roll and a BFA in jazz. Couple that with a passion for Bartok and Stravinsky and you end up with all original music that draws on all those influences to create something akin to traditional music for a generation that has so many traditions it calls his. Balkan and Middle-Eastern rhythms are prominent, backed by 20th century composing concepts and jazz improvising. Vampire Suit will be playing June 17th, at 8:00pm at Barbes, corner of 9th St. and 6th Ave. in Park Slope, Brooklyn.

Charming Hostess
time: 8:00p
location: Rm 54-100 (Green Bldg)
Performance from the female ensemble's new CD, "Sarajevo Blues" (Tzadik), which draws on Bosnian poetry of love and resistance, celebrating the triumph of the human spirit. In "Sarajevo Blues," Charming Hostess takes history and news as a context, but steers towards poetry as a way to focus on daily life under siege. Some songs explicitly speak of war, and others of cafe culture, underground sexuality, freedom and the nature of evil.The ensemble includes Katzenstein Lecturer Jewlia Eisenberg (see Sept 15) whose music is rooted in the body?voices and vocal percussion, handclaps and heartbeats, sex-breath and silence. "Charming Hostess makes music like no other? Thrown in with lively North African wedding songs and Eastern European folk songs are originals that display a proudly feminist, radical-Jewish, pro-sex sensibility," wrote the New York Times.

Een nieuw geluid van Di Fidl-Kapelye!
Project "Trumpets for Di Fidl-Kapelye"
Bekend om haar authentieke klezmer-sound is Di Fidl-Kapelye nu op weg naar nieuwe horizonten: blazende klezmer-experts componeren speciaal voor de snaren-kapelye nieuwe stukken.
5 beroemde klezmer-blazers hebben de afgelopen maanden gewerkt aan nieuw repertoire speciaal voor Di Fidl-Kapelye geschreven. Het project begon met drie trompettisten: Frank London (van o.a. de Klezmatics), Gijs Levelt (o.a. Amsterdam Klezmer Band) en Susan Watts (o.a. de Klezmer Brass Allstars). Inmiddels is het uitgegroeid tot een blazers-voor-strijkers-project, waarin ook klarinettist Yankl Falk (di Naye Kapelye) en saxofonist Job Chajes (Amsterdam Klezmer Band) componeren.
Première van het project: zo. 19 feb, Synagoge Enschede

Saturday Mar. 4
8:00 PM
Curated by Anthony Coleman. Featuring Elysian Fields, Mark Anthony Thompson, Sanda, Shelley Hirsch, Doveman, Christina Courtin, Gina Leishman and the Main Squeeze Orchestra.
Kurt Weill, one of America's greatest composers, embraced myriad musical forms but found his greatest success in popular music and theater.

Pianist Anthony Coleman and friends pay tribute to the man behind The Threepenny Opera and present modern takes on his seminal songs, including "Ballad of the Soldier's Wife," "Alabama Song," "Mack the Knife" and "Lost in the Stars."
This event will take place at the Tribeca Performing Arts Center, 199 Chambers Street.

Alicia's Klezmer Party brings the joyful sounds of traditional Ashkenazic Jewish dance music to young ears and feet. World-renowned klezmer fiddler Alicia Svigals, accordionist Art Bailey, and Yiddish singer Magda Fishman raise the roof with hot klezmer tunes and get kids and adults clapping and stamping along. Children learn Yiddish words and shtetl-flavored melodies to sing along and bring home to their own holiday celebrations. Alicia's Klezmer Party brings to life the ecstatic and poignant sounds that must have emanated from Chagall's original fiddlers, a magical journey for kids and parents of all backgrounds.

BENEFIT CONCERT FOR ISRAELI CHILDREN, FEATURING AMAZING
PIANOMAN RANDY HERMAN AND FRIENDS!
Thursday, November 2nd, 7:30 PM -
"Take a Step for Children in Israel Concert" to benefit Alyn Hospital, Israel's premier rehabilitation
center for physically challenged children. Featuring Randy Herman, "an amazing caffeine-fueled... eclectic pianist-singer songwriter" says the Chicago Reader. After several years as an underground, college-radio artist and studio musician, Randy has recently reconnected with his Jewish roots and dived head-first into Jewish-music territory - and begun a whole new life as a cantorial student at the Jewish Theological Seminary. This truly special concert will feature a 10-piece band of top-notch NYC players, plus special guests fiddle-master and Klezmatics-founder Alicia Svigals, and country-folk duo The Guthries. With Mike Cohen, Stan Schwartz, and outstanding fellow cantorial students Debbie Bletstein and Jen Cohen. A not-too-be-missed event!
Feinberg Auditorium, The Jewish Theological Seminary, 122nd and Broadway.

Tonight is "Happy birthday Mullah Nasruddin", a benefit for Afghan children's literacy (nnd including Afghan nibbles, I'm told.) I'll be singing and also telling Djohá stories in Judeo-Spanish; Georges Sawa and his gorup will be playing, members of the Toronto Storytelling School will be telling Nasruddin stories, the Bierdos are on the programme (no idea), and there is a short "happy birthday Mullah Nasruddin" film. It's at the Yoga Sanctuary in Toronto, downtown, 2 College Street, above the Starbucks at College & Yonge, 8 pm-11 pm. Oh, I'll also be calling the audience in from the Milling Around part of the evening by playing three-holed pipe and tabor.
To communicate the stories of the Sephardic ballads I've chosen - trickster themes to reflect the Djohá / Nasruddin theme of the evening , I will be using my new ,"POWERofPOINTing" presentation, which features my utter, abysmal lack of drawing ability mediated by the high tech of newsprint paper and cheap magic markers.

1933 lebten 3.358 Juden in Karlsruhe. Über tausend fanden zwischen 1933 und 1945 den Tod. Auf Initiative des Stadtarchivs Karlsruhe und von diesem betreut, nähern sich Bürgerinnen und Bürger der Stadt dem Lebenslauf eines der ermordeten Menschen, indem sie Spuren seines Lebens suchen und schliesslich seine Biographie verfassen. Jede fertig gestellte Biographie wird mit dem Namen der Verfasserin und des Verfassers in ein Gedenkbuch eingefügt. Durch diese Biographien erfährt man nicht nur etwas über den Leidensweg der Opfer, sondern auch vieles über das Leben in Karlsruhe zu der damaligen Zeit. Wir werden einige dieser Lebensläufe aus den unterschiedlichsten Bevölkerungsschichten auswählen und deren Verfasser (von Schülern bis zu Rentnern) einladen, Auszüge aus diesen kurzen biographischen Skizzen selbst vorzutragen. Diese sind oft sehr persönlich und enthalten viele interessante Aspekte: z. B. über das Familienleben, oder von den materiellen Schwierigkeiten, sich als allein stehende Frau mit einem Kind durchschlagen zu müssen, vom Dasein eines Kleinunternehmers und vieles andere mehr bis hin zur traurigen und tragischen Zeit der Verfolgung.

On Saturday December 9th at 8 p.m., my synagogue, TEMPLE SINAI of SHARON, MA is hosting an End-of-year-balance-the-budget-get-ready-for- Chanukah-hunker-down-for-winter-heal-the-world-sing-your-guts-out- concert featuring two of my favorite singer/songwriters who are also treasured friends: PERI SMILOW, whose velvety, powerful and captivating voice and has brought thousands of people together in song and social action across the country; and JOSH NELSON, co- founder of Yom Hadash, now leader of his own group, The Josh Nelson Project, incredible singer and multi-instrumentalist, who is presently zooming upward into the top rank of Jewish contemporary musical artists. And, yes, JEFF KLEPPER, yours truly, is included at no extra charge, which is why we call this concert WHEN THREE STARS APPEAR. "Unplugged" might best describe the music, but with three voices, three guitars, piano, bass, mandolin and other surprises, who knows what might happen? The $36 general admission includes free finger-food before the show and a (cash) wine bar. A color flyer with pretty pictures and all the details is at our website:
www.temple-sinai.com/when_3_stars_appear/Temple Sinai is about a half-hour south of Boston off Interstate 95, (just south of 128). There's directions at the website and lots of parking in back of the shul. Don't worry about it being sold out, if enough folks show up we'll just open the sanctuary wall a bit...

Yitzhok Niborski, renowned yiddish teacher, lecturer and the director of the Paris Yiddish Center will be delivering a lecture (in yiddish with english translation) on Aaron Tseitlin's "Weitzman the Second - a visionary farce" For those not familiar with Dr. Niborski, he is to my mind one of the finest Yiddish teachers in the world and a very engaging and entertaining lecturer with a keen sense of humor.
After the lecture there be a performance by the Strauss-Warschauer Duo,
internationally recognized klezmer musicians and teachers.
The lecture will be held at the Los Angeles Yiddish Culture Club which has
existed in Los Angeles for more than 80 years and is a Yiddish cultural icon
without peer on the west coast.

Fabian Schnedler, the Berlin Yiddish singer, half of the group "Shiker vi Lot"
Boston
20th of December (Wednesday),
8pm at Johnny's D (17 Holland Street, Boston, Sommerville, Maine).
It will be a concert of the Shirim Klezmer Band, and Fabian will sing before.
Fabian accompanies himself on guitar and has cool arrangements of known and unknown yiddish songs plus a beautiful voice. He is usually not to be heard in the US - so go and hear a talented singer from Berlin, who studied with Michael Alpert, Adrienne Cooper
and others, and is now presenting his own approach! Highly recommended by Janina Werb and Itzik Gottesman on the Jewish-Music mailing list. (Shirim, of course, is highly recommended by all.)

So come on out! Moto has a great menu, fantastic desserts (esp. the date cake) and brews on tap. It's at 394 Broadway in Brooklyn... can take the J or M subway trains to Hewes St. and Cafe Moto is right under the station—the strange wedge shaped building at the corner in the middle of the intersection. No cover, a hat is passed. There's klezmer every Tuesday night with some random assortment of Michael Winograd, Jake Shulman-Ment, Jeff Perlman and Pete Rushefsky and their friends.

No cover, a hat is passed. There's klezmer every Tuesday night with some random assortment of Michael Winograd, Jake Shulman-Ment, Jeff Perlman and Pete Rushefsky and their friends.
A clash of civilizations! Jews, Muslims and Christians mortal enemies! Humanity itself on the brink of collapse!
The headlines coming out of the Middle East leave us with little to smile about these days. War and turmoil are seemingly so constant, one would think Israelis and Palestinians incapable of getting together and sharing a good laugh.
Here to put this misconception to rest are Charley Warady and Ray Hanania, two comedians - one Israeli, one Palestinian - who have put their religious and political differences behind them and joined forces to inject some much needed laughter into our embattled landscape.

EXTENDED BODY:
The Ensemble Lucidarium, a famous international group of scholar musicians specialized in the works of the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, will perform: "La Istoria de Purim," Jewish music and poetry from the Italian Renaissance, which was awarded first prize in 2004 by the European Association for Jewish Culture.
In the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, northern Italy was a meeting place for three separate Jewish communities: Ashkenazi, Jews coming from northeastern Europe, Sephardic Jews from the Iberian peninsula, and Italikim who had been in Italy since the days of the Roman Empire. The music from this period is characterized by a fertile exchange of ideas and culture between Jews and gentiles. The texts transcribed into the Hebrew alphabet in four-verse stanzas are written in the colorful Jewish vernacular spoken in the Po valley during the sixteenth century. The rhymes were typical of the songs performed to celebrate the festival of Purim by recounting the story of Queen Esther. Ensemble Lucidarium has reconstructed the music through painstaking research into sixteenth-century music and oral traditions still alive in certain areas of the Tuscan and Emilian Apennines.
This concert has been organized with the support of Congregation Beth Shalom
of Naperville and E.A.J.C. (European Association for Jewish Culture).

JuMu présente
(en accord avec Run Productions)
En concert unique a Paris
Sophie Solomon (Londres) + SoCalled (Canada)
L'avenir de la musique Klezmer
Inevitable rencontre parisienne a l'initiative de JuMu entre notre DJ Canadien national, SoCalled (aka Josh Dolgin), et la tres charismatique Sophie Solomon, violoniste britannique qui s'est illustree notamment au sein des Oi Va Oi, groupe electro londonien. Ces deux personnages, au centre de la nouvelle scene klezmer, n'ont jamais hesite a derouter leurs auditeurs en incorporant a la base de leur univers musical des elements exterieurs afin d'explorer de nouvelles marges. SoCalled, en collectionneur avise, mixe depuis toujours des vieux disques klezmer avec du hip hop et de l'electro mais ne laisse jamais son piano et son accordeon seuls trop longtemps, tandis que Sophie Solomon multiplie les projets les plus improbables sans se preoccuper des etiquettes, a coup de melange de sonorites russes, tziganes ou proche-orientales, sa virtuosite prenant toute sa dimension dans ces melodies tantot lancinantes, tantot enjouees mais toujours d'une grande dignité typique de la musique juive d'Europe de l'Est.

I'm proud to invite you to our March 18th concert entitled "Musik Macht Frei" (music makes you free) that explores the role of music in the survival of the human spirit under the crushing barbarity of the Nazi concentration camps. This concert includes stories of historic performances, archival images and survivor accounts presented to the accompaniment of music performed and/or composed by prisoners. From small choirs to fully
staged operas, this music—making took place against the unlikely backdrop of the camps, both in secret or with the consent of the Nazi officials. I have found this music to be hauntingly beautiful and inspiring and I look forward to sharing it with you.
Please join me, Hinda Goodstein, and the Brookline Chorus in celebration of the human spirit and in remembrance of these terrifying events.

The Israeli-born Moshav Band grew up on Moshav Meor Modi'im, a musical village located in the hills between Jerusalem and Tel Aviv. Moshav, primarily composed of brothers Yehuda (vocals, percussion), Meir (vocals, guitar, mandolin), Yosef (bass) Solomon, and David (vocals, guitar) comes on like a family of traveling minstrels, court jesters, and the old-age mystics all at once. Their music is rich with fiery rock/folk/reggae songs, spiced with the flavors of the Middle East. The boys draw you into their own struggles, and leave you pondering your own, but not before they provide you with a huge helping of hope.

Price: Free
As we prepare to enter the Springtime, the season of pilgrimage and slaughtered lambs, the season of feasting and rejoicing, the season of energies unbridled and blood flowing loose in the veins, we of The Sway Machinery prepare to say a fond farewell to TOMER TZUR, who will be moving back to his native land of Israel at the end of the month. For me personally, NYC without Tomer is almost as hard to imagine as New York without graffiti on the subway cars and the 2nd Avenue Deli standing proudly on the corner of E 11th Street. These things, too, we have seen pass. But before I start pulling out my third hanky, I'll have you all know, there's a party starting and it won't stop 'till we all drop. This Sunday night at Zebulon, starting at an unwholesome hour and going until it's time to go, we will regal our friends and fans with our music and enjoy the company of my man Tomer Tzur in good old-fashioned style.

Pittsburgh's own Steel City Klezmorim, a staple on the local music scene, has been making a name for themselves nationally and internationally.

Joining him are the well-known klezmer maven and gypsy violinist Steven Greenman, the world-class cymbalim player Alex Fedoriouk, and pianist Josh Dolgin, a leading proponent of urban klezmer. Hear them take center stage at Club Cafe for a casual evening of food, drink, and traditional klezmer music. (Young guests must be 21 and over or accompanied by legal guardian.)

"Song of the Lodz Ghetto"
featuring Brave Old World
Tuesday, May 29 7:30pm
Katz Theatre, JCC of Greater Pittsburgh 5738 Forbes Ave.
Song of the Lodz Ghetto is a song cycle in which memory and imagination freely interact to create a journey between present and past. Brave Old World's new Yiddish songs and compositions are interwoven with arrangements of the rare music created between 1940-44 in the Nazi ghetto of Lodz, Poland. This is music on the cutting edge of tradition performed by the celebrated quartet of the klezmer scene. Michael Alpert is renowned for his soulful renderings in the Yiddish language. Music director Alan Bern is acclaimed for his prize-winning compositions. Clarinetist Kurt Bjorling is internationally recognized as one of the most inventive interpreters of Klezmer music. And Stuart Brotman provides multi-instrumental virtuosity. You don't have to be Jewish to love this world-class band.

Sunday, June 3, 8:00 pm at Sanders Theatre: Classical meets cool, rousing meets reflective -- music celebrating the enduring spirit and dramatic stories of the Jewish people. Our annual Sanders extravaganza joins Zamir, under the direction of Artistic Director Joshua Jacobson, with Cantor Jeff Klepper and Rabbi Daniel Freelander, of Kol B'Seder. The world-renowned duo, founded in 1973, has influenced the modern American Jewish movement with their unique, contemporary sound, which some have dubbed "American nusach."
The evening kicks off with Zamir performing majestic classics by 19th-century synagogue composer Louis Lewandowski, as well as expressive settings of biblical texts by Americans Leonard Bernstein, Daniel Pinkham, and Randall Thompson. The centerpiece is the brilliant a cappella "Roni Akarah," a rarely performed work by Israel's Paul Ben-Haim.
Kol B'Seder will take the stage to present new pieces and old favorites, followed by a joint set with Zamir and an instrumental ensemble led by Hankus Netsky, including new settings of Kol B'Seder's best-loved songs such as "Shalom Rav" (abundant peace). Be sure to order your tickets in advance for this special evening!

Nicki and Lisa Parrott here. We have a great gig coming up at Barge Music at the Fulton ferry landing in Brooklyn on the 16th of August. If you haven't been to any of the concerts at Barge music yet, you're in for a real treat. It's a lovely venue. It's indoors, very charming with great views by the water, parking, and it's very close to the famous Grimaldi's pizza restaurant, and the lovely River cafe.
We will be playing a few Australian folk songs in a jazz style, and Nicki will also be singing a whole new repertoire that we've been rehearsing with the help of a beautiful piano player, John DiMartino. We will be performing as a quartet with drums.
Anyway, we're really looking forward to this gig and we would love to see you there if you can make it. Enjoy the rest of your summer!
More info about Barge Music below.
Musically yours,
Nicki and Lisa Parrott

"I'll be back Andy along with drummer Larry Eagle at a fascinating concert that features him and Rick Skaggs at the Lincoln Center on August 19th.... He's playing both clarinet and mandolin and he asked me to bring a tuba along with a bass, so it should be quite the Jew-Bluegrass throw-down."

Edinburgh Festival Fringe Hopkele
Be part of the first ever Scottish Klezmer Keilidh at Dancebase, 14-16 Grassmarket, Edinburgh
The Edinburgh Festival Hopkele is the familiar ceildih format, with one essential difference – it’s old-style Jewish, rather than Celtic!
Renowned Klezmer Dance Kaller Guy Schalom will lead and teach traditional Eastern European Yiddish circle, square and chain dances, including Freylekhs, Shers, Horas and Bulgars. And just to help put that extra ‘spring’ in your step will be klez-fiddler extraordinaire Ilana Cravitz and the Hopkele House Band (Dave Shulman –clarinet, John Bone – clarinet, Simon Carlyle – tuba) with the lively Jewish party music widely known as klezmer.
A Yiddish Barn Dance for the 21st century – not to be missed! If you can’t be there, tell your friends .
Tickets: £10. Bring a Pal: book two places at the same time and get the second half price (subject to availability). 0131 225 5525. www.dancebase.co.uk. Dancebase National Centre for Dance, 14-16 Grassmarket, Edinburgh EH1 2JU

2:00pm – 4:00pm
The Yiddish committee invites you to join us as we commemorate the 55th anniversary of Stalin’s murderous assault on Yiddish culture in the Soviet Union. We will read from the works of a number of leading Yiddish writers who were arrested, tried secretly on trumped-up charges of treason and finally executed by firing squad on August 12, 1952. Most readings will be in Yiddish but wherever possible, we will provide English and Russian translations. The musical portion of the program will feature klezmer clarinetist, Dena Ressler.
The musical portion also includes Elka (Ellie) Kelman, Yiddish instructor at Brandeis, who is in possession of a fine voice, singing songs of Kulbak and Izi Kharik. Ressler will deliver a short bio of the latter (af yidish with English translation) and try to read a couple of his poems. And she will play.

Another Realm, featuring Hankus Netsky and Linda Chase at Temple Beth Israel in Waltham on Sunday, September 30th.
On Sunday, September 30th at 7 PM, Temple Beth Israel Coffeehouse will present Another Realm, a jazz, world music, and improvisation ensemble featuring four of the Boston area’s most adventurous and creative musicians. The group consists of pianist and reed player Hankus Netsky, flutist/composer Linda Chase, bassist Chris Rathbun, and percussionist Tupac Mantilla. Together, they explore a repertoire that includes pieces from South American, Eastern European, Asian, and Jewish traditions, jazz standards, music of romantic and impressionist European composers, poetry-based improvisations, and original songs and compositions.
Hankus Netsky is an instructor in jazz, contemporary improvisation, and Jewish music at the New England Conservatory in Boston, Vice President for Education at the National Yiddish Book Center, and founder and director of the Klezmer Conservatory Band, an internationally renowned Yiddish music ensemble. "Another Realm" gives Netsky a chance to go beyond the traditional klezmer music he is best known for and explore a variety of improvisational genres.
Linda Chase teaches composition, arranging, world music, jazz and improvisation at Berklee College of Music. She is the recent winner of the Kaji Aso Studio's "Tanabata" Composition Prize, the recipient of a Berklee faculty composition grant, has composed for the American Repertory Theatre Institute in Cambridge, and is a featured performer in concerts and at clubs throughout the Boston area. Tupac Mantilla is a native of Colombia, where he is well known for his percussion work in both traditional, and contemporary music. Bassist Chris Rathbun has performed with "Papa" Jo Jones, Tiny Grimes, Terry Lynn Carrington, Sir Charles Thompson, Herb Pomeroy, The Artie Shaw Orchestra, and numerous other artists.

Tuesday, October 16, 2007
7:30 AM
Bardavon Opera House
35 Market St
Poughkeepsie, New York 12601
Thirteen of the world's most influential klezmer musicians gather for a concert and educational program inspired by the iconic 1958 photograph of jazz musicians "A Great Day in Harlem."
Conceived of and led by klezmer virtuoso Yale Strom, this gathering of musicians will highlight klezmer music, the traditional wedding and folk music played by Eastern European Jews. Klezmer lost popularity in the Unitd States after the 1950s as Jews looked to American musical sources. It began experiencing a revival in the 1970s as young musicians interested in their roots began to reclaim this tradition and incorporate American jazz and rock influences.
Join the Eldridge Street Project on its Great Day Tour with "A Great Day on Eldridge Street" in the beautful setting of the 1891 Fredonia Opera House.

1891 Fredonia Opera House
9 Church St. PO Box 384
Fredonia, NY 14063
Thirteen of the world's most influential klezmer musicians gather for a concert and educational program inspired by the iconic 1958 photograph of jazz musicians "A Great Day in Harlem."
Conceived of and led by klezmer virtuoso Yale Strom, this gathering of musicians will highlight klezmer music, the traditional wedding and folk music played by Eastern European Jews. Klezmer lost popularity in the Unitd States after the 1950s as Jews looked to American musical sources. It began experiencing a revival in the 1970s as young musicians interested in their roots began to reclaim this tradition and incorporate American jazz and rock influences.
Join the Eldridge Street Project on its Great Day Tour with "A Great Day on Eldridge Street" in the beautful setting of the 1891 Fredonia Opera House.

SoCalled
hip hop yiddish
SoCalled est le fondateur du hip hop klezmer. Ce nouveau style mélange l'esprit Yiddish, le rap, le jazz, l'électro, la funk et le rock. Agitateur patenté, " l'échantilloneur " Josh Dolgin souffle un courant d'air frais sur la musique juive. Avec sa manière innée de plaquer un chant traditionnel hassidique sur un breakbeat old school, SoCalled emporte le morceau. Le résultat est dansant, décoiffant, déroutant.

Violoniste à l'énergie rock, Estelle Goldfarb allie fougue, mélancolie slave et sensualité orientale. Elle a multiplié les collaborations avec SoCalled, Matisyahu, David Krakauer... Elle entame aujourd'hui une collaboration avec DJ ClicK, Le chineur de sons traditionnels venus des Balkans et des quatre coins du monde.

Manguina
mélodies judéo-espagnol
Manguina signifie mélodie en hébreu. On y retrouve toute la fougue des rythmes klezmer et la nostalgie des mélodies yiddish qui font revivre un monde perdu.
Par leurs compositions tendance jazz, et les chants qu'ils interprètent en judéo- espagnol, ils donnent à ce grand voyage musical du " yiddishland au sefarland ", des accents originaux.

Margot Leverett et Monique Lansdorp
klezmer-country
Margotte Leverett et son Klezmer Mountain Boys s'intéressent aux affinités communes entre la country et le klezmer. La base instrumentale de ces deux genres est semblable, ces deux musiques parlent de l'âme, celle d'un peuple. C'est surtout ce dialogue qui a intéressé Margot Leverett.

Choral Arts Society of Philadelphia presents:
This season's holiday concert will be more than a little unusual. Dedicated to the celebration of Hanukkah, it will combine music both old and new, taking us back to the 17th century, when the famous violinist and composer Salomone Rossi wrote the first polyphonic setting of the Shabbat Service. To complement the splendid ceremonial music of Rossi, Choral Arts has commissioned a Hanukkah Oratorio by internationally renowned composer David Ludwig. An ensemble of period instruments - recorders, baroque fiddles, sackbuts, lutes and percussion - will accompany this festive holiday concert. Bring the entire family!

Starting on Satuday 17 November, Klezmokum will be touring Holland and in Belgium) with "Ancient & Newer Roots", a program of original works by Jewish composers dating back to the period around World War Two, now updated into contemporary comopositions. The works by Mikhl Gelbart, Kasriel Broydo, Beyle Schaechter Gottesman and others are in new arrangements by Burton Greene, pianist and leader of Klezmokum. The tour has been made possible by funding from Maror in Amsterdam and the Levi Lassen Foundation in The Hague. Most of the concerts will be at synagogues or other Jewish locations.

In addition to traditional Chassidic melodies, there are also modern works by Matt Darriau (Klezmatics) and Bill Averbach (Austin Klezmorim), and by Sylke Rollig/Burton Greene included in Burton's arrangements. Nine of the compositions have already been recorded on a CD (BVHAAST CD 1205). Klezmokum combines originally Jewish music with Jazz and spontaneous improvisations, resulting in surprising modern music that retains the original atmosphere.

Advance Tickets are $20/$10. Tickets at the door are $25/$15. Subscribers receive the greatest discount. Brandeis Tickets: 781-736-3400.
The prophetic visions of Ezekiel are some of the most fascinating and vivid of all ancient texts. The traditional melodies used to chant them in the synagogue have been with us for ages, and serve as the inspiration for saxophonist Greg Wall’s Later Prophets. Featuring master percussionist and long time collaborator Aaron Alexander, seriously grooving bassist David Richards, and keyboards phenom Shai Bachar, the quartet manages to simultaneously straddle the gates of the ancient and avant-garde, while creating a musical experience that is as timeless as the texts themselves.

Liquid Life
Woodwinds - Jim Warshauer
Oud - Gregory White
Acoustic bass - Sven Larson
Percussion - Grant Smith
Liquid Life is a four-way collaboration featuring the unusual instrumentation of oud, woodwinds, string bass, and percussion. The band came together out of a desire to play fiery, rhythmic, improvisational music at low acoustic volumes. Performances can flow from jazz to funk grooves to distinctly middle eastern feels, all seamlessly and organically. These skilled musicians create a musical empathy in the moment that audiences can immediately relate to. Fans of acoustic music, jazz, world fusion, and collective improvisation will all connect with this exciting music.
Back by popular demand! Yale Strom & Hot Pstromi return for another Friday Night Oneg at NYC's Congregation B'Nai Jeshurun, 88th Street between Broadway and West End Avenue.

Join Galeet Dardashti for an interactive evening that introduces attendees to the Sephardi piyut traditions from the Middle East and North Africa. This evening will not only allow you to hear and learn a few of these beautiful and poetic songs but will provide you with a cultural and historical lens for understanding why the paytanim (poets) wrote them and continued composing them up until the last century. This lecture will also highligh the important ways in which the music of these piyutim draws from secular Arabic and Middle Eastern music. Galeet will perform and teach a number of piyutim representing the Iraqi, Sephardi-Yerushalmi, Moroccan, and Iranian traditions.

Can you believe it? It is time for the 25th Anniversary concert of Shirim on Feb. 17, 2:00 at the Regent Theater, 7 Medford St., Arlington, MA. Tickets are $12.50, $8 for seniors and kids. Call the box office at (781) 646-4849 for tickets or visit www.regenttheatre.com. We are keeping the price low in the spirit of celebration and because we are making a video of the concert and want to have you there! Buy your tickets early!
Our first gig was 25 years ago at a Purim party at MIT, if I remember correctly. And since then we have played hundreds of weddings and Bar Mitzvahs in the Boston area- maybe yours? We have recorded 7 unique CDs, we have worked with Maurice Sendak and Ellen Kushner, played on the soundtrack of a Woody Allen movie, toured across the U.S.A., Canada and Europe, and we keep playing here in Boston through it all. Remember the annual December 25th concerts at Coolidge Corner? First Night at Berklee Performance Center? Hanukah celebrations at Downtown crossing in the freezing cold? It has been a long road, and we keep on going on!
So come and see us again! We’ll play some fresh music and some chestnuts. Hope to see you there!

Rimon:Master Classes in Judaic Studies with Galeet Dardashti
Performing Arab and Middle Eastern Music in Israel
Based on Galeet Dardashti's doctoral dissertation research in anthropology, these Master Classes chronicle the recent mainstreaming of Middle Eastern and Arab-influenced art music (musika etnit yisraelit) in the Israeli public sphere. Long-forgotten Iraqi septuagenarian musicians are only now asked to share their unique knowledge with receptive Israeli students and audiences; Palestinian and Jewish Israelis have formed a range of Middle Eastern and Arab-influenced bands; Israeli groups are performing interpretations of the music of Egyptian legends such as Oum Kalthoum and Farid El-Atrash for packed concert halls; and recently some of Israel's most noted secular rock singers have recorded their own renditions of Middle Eastern piyutim (Jewish praise songs). These developments over the past fifteen years represent an historical shift in Israeli cultural politics and indicate an openness to cultural diversity and a decline of the homogeneous Israeli national cultural identity that government policy had strongly encouraged since the State's inception. Through the music scene, Galeet examines this unique nationalist movement in Israel, examining how scholars can represent some of the complex cultural realities of this global era.

Saturday, February 23, 8:00 pm
$10 members, $12 non-members
Buy tickets NOW!
Craig Ventresco, Meredith Axelrod, and Rob Reich fashion music utterly unconcerned with the modern era. Concentrating on early 20th century vaudeville, ragtime, and popular songs as recorded on obscure 78s from the dawn of the recorded music era, their sound travels backwards across time, pleasantly rumbling down the dirt roads of an America that once was.
Dream Kitchen presents a radical reevaluation of early Jazz, showing its roots in ragtime and folk music and its implications for improvisation. Compositions by Jelly Roll Morton, Louis Armstrong, and Duke Ellington are thrashed, trashed and smashed by a tuba-guitar-drums trio of John Schott, Marc Bolin, and John Hanes. The trio, whose members have won countless accolades in pretty much every musical genre, will also indulge in an investigation of the works of early Jewish Jazz composers.

The dynamic composer-driven ensemble counter)induction is committed to demonstrating musical parallels in what might otherwise seem to be opposing forms; immersing audiences in the world of contemporary music through high energy performance and a razor-sharp aesthetic. counter)induction will premiere a new work by featured composer Anthony Coleman alongside the music of absurdist auteur Mauricio Kagel and Hungary's greatest living composer György Kurtág.

This is a joint concert with composer/performer Anthony Coleman; c)i will premiere a new work, as well works by Boyce, Kurtág and Kagel. The first half of the concert will feature Coleman and friends performing Kagel's rarely heard Der Schall, quite possibly a once in a life time opportunity.

From Flory Jagoda:
Please join me for a splendid afternoon of Jewish Sephardic music on
Sunday, April 6, 2008 at 4:00 pm.
The one hour concert will be at Congregation Etz Hayim, the synagogue that has been my religious home since I first came to America in 1946.
I was born in Sarajevo, Bosnia. Before the madness of the Second World War, 14,000 Jewish people called Sarajevo home and it was known throughout Europe as /Chico Yerushalayim/ (Little Jerusalem) for its thriving Sephardic community. Today, sadly, there are only 160 Jewish survivors living there and most of them are elderly and ill.
They need our help and I am committed to sending them the help that they need.
To Buy Tickets and/or make a donation, please contact:

Maxwell St. Klezmer @ Summerdance
The 12th annual Chicago SummerDance series is organized and presented by the Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs. This summer the Spirit of Music Garden in Grant Park becomes a unique outdoor urban dance space – the largest of its kind in the United States.
The Maxwell Street Klezmer Band, founded in 1983, brings a kaleidoscope of colors and moods and an old-fashioned spirit of fun to their performance of traditional Jewish music. The combination of dance music, folk songs, theatre medleys and jazzy Yiddish pop music from the 1930's to the 1950's creates a rich, multi-dimensional experience of the lost world of Eastern European Jewish culture, combined with vignettes of America as seen through immigrant eyes. Audiences of all backgrounds are delighted by Maxwell Street's high-energy performances that glow with warmth and humor.
Dance lessons by Steve Weintraub begin at 6pm, Music at 7pm. FREE!

Museum of Jewish Heritage
36 Battery Place, New York, NY 10280.
A soul-stirring musical journey, "The Spirit of Sepharad: From Casbah to Caliphate” traces the unique migration of Sephardic music from medieval Spain, across North Africa, to the Middle East. Combining music, dance and illuminating projections, this dynamic mixed-media performance brings to life all the rich cultural strains that influenced Sephardic/Mizrahi Jews. Featuring an array of virtuoso musicians from multiple disciplines, the program includes songs of secular and liturgical origin, spanning many centuries to the present and many continents from Ancient Persia (present day Afghanistan and Iran), Spain, Morocco, Algeria, Greece, Syria, Turkey, The Balkans, Jerusalem and Kurdistan (then, as now, part of Iran, Turkey and Iraq). The musical story of a rich cultural heritage that synthesizes diverse influences, "The Spirit of Sepharad" is a celebration of the Sephardic/Mizrahi experience that invites the possibility of coexistence, tolerance, respect and peace among all peoples.
Featuring:
Gerard Edery (vocals, guitar, saz) master of Sephardic song, winner of the Sephardic Musical Heritage Award
Amir Vahab (vocals, saz, percussion) Iranian master vocalist of Persian sacred and folk music
Glen Velez (percussion) Three-time Grammy Award winning master drummer and composer

World-Premiere Concert of “The Other Europeans” project, with Kalman Balogh (director of the Roma band, cimbalom, Budapest), Alan Bern (project director, director of the Yiddish band, piano/accordion, Berlin) Dan Blacksberg (trombone), Paul Brody (trumpet, Berlin), Marin Bunea (violin, Chisinau), Christian Dawid (clarinet, Berlin), Matt Darriau (flute, Brooklyn), Csaba Novak (bass, Budapest) Petar Ralchev (accordion, Plovdiv), Stas Rayko (violin, Hamburg), Adrian Recean (clarinet, Paris), Mark Rubin (tuba, Austin), Guy Schalom (drums, London), Adam Stinga (trumpet, Chisinau).
In London, Berlin, Paris, and other centers of “world music” today, mixtures of klezmer, Roma, and Balkan musics are hot in the dance clubs. Does a deeper relationship exist among these musics, or is this just the latest pop music trend? “The Other Europeans,” created and directed by Alan Bern, sets out to explore the common roots of Yiddish and Roma music in Moldavia, Wallachia, and as far as Istanbul in the early 20th century. The project brings together 14 internationally renowned musicians to create two new bands – one Yiddish and one Roma. A two-year project, in 2008, the two bands will choose a common Moldo-Wallachian repertoire but play separately, focusing on what makes Yiddish and Roma styles unique from each other.

"Degenerate Music": Jewish Music of Weimar Germany
The Mendocino Music Festival
Thursday, July 17, 8:00 pm
Susan Waterfall & The Mendocino Music Festival Chamber Players
Erin Neff, vocalist
After World War I, Weimar Berlin was a cauldron of artistic ferment as avant-garde artists and intellectuals, most of them Jewish, struggled to create a modern German culture. Exuberant freedom and hectic experimentation masked a sense of impending doom. After 1933, Hitler denounced them all as "degenerate" and their forced exile carried Weimar modernity to the rest of the world. A re-creation of this fascinating and pivotal era with cabaret and chamber music of Weill, Schoenberg, and Eisler, photographs and film.
Presented by The Mendocino Music Festival in association with the Jewish Music Festival

Festive gypsy brass band Boban i Marko Markovic Orkestar ignites an "unbeatable Balkan dance party" (Songlines) in the Kimmel Center's Perelman Theater on Thursday, July 24, 2008 at 7:30pm.
Hailed as the greatest of Balkan trumpeters, Boban Markovic, the legendary native of Serbia's gypsy brass heartland, has led his 13-piece Orkestar to international acclaim, enhancing the traditional repertoire with elements of jazz, Latin and pop, among others. Boban and his son Marko lead the Orkestar into new directions with their trail-blazing musical mix, which the New York Times calls a ""a stunning blast of exuberance and virtuosity."
"With nods to klezmer, jazz, Latin and deep-fried funk injected into the mix, the Boban Markovic Orkestar knows where their music's been but they're hell-bent on sling-shotting it straight into the future." —Global Rhythm
Tickets are $20 and can be purchased by calling 215-893-1999, online at www.kimmelcenter.org/global, or at the Kimmel Center box office open daily from 10am to 6pm and later on performance evenings. (Additional fees may apply.) For group sales call 215-790-5883.

I am excited to announce the forthcoming release of my new CD, Yizkor: Music of Memory. It is an album of original settings of the prayers and psalms associated with Yizkor, the Jewish memorial service. It was recorded this past November with Hazzan Alberto Mizrahi and my group, The Afro-Semitic Experience. Although there have been a number of jazz artists who have written requiem and memorial pieces I am fairly certain that no one has ever written a jazz setting for the Yizkor service.
On August 20, at 7:00 p.m. we will be premiering the work at the historic Museum at Eldridge Street in the lower east side of Manhattan. This is going to be quite a concert. Hazzan Mizrahi will be coming to New York from his home in Chicago to join us for this performance. We will also be joined by our old friend, trumpeter Saskia Laroo, who is coming to New York from her home in Amsterdam. And Hazzan Jack Mendelson, my teacher and mentor in the ways of Hazzanut is also planning to sing some pieces with us and possibly a duet with Hazzan Mizrahi (he's coming from White Plains which is practically in New York!). I have the feeling that this is going to be a good night of music.
The address of the Museum at Eldridge Street is 12 Eldridge Street in New York City. If you are interested in tickets or for more information please call 212-219-0888 or visit their web site at www.eldridgestreet.org . I hope that you will join us for that performance.

While powerfully evoking the golden age of American-Yiddish swing, the group simultaneously blazes new trails in contemporary klezmer-jazz crossover. There is something for everyone to enjoy!

DANIEL ABRAMS' Opera For Piano concert on Oct. 15, at the Mannes College of Music, will include the American premier of his Musical Portraits from Wagner's 'Ring' (each"Portrait" is based on the musical motif of that character, a particular scene of importance, and/or a verbal statement of consequence).
The program also includes ABRAMS' Chaconne on "Dido's Lament" from Dido And Aeneas , Variations on "Voi Che Sapete" from The Marriage of Figaro, and Variations on "Ein Engel Leonora" from Fidelio. Opera For Piano retains each pieces original style, preserving its complex moods and subtle powers -- as if the composers themselves had written the operas as piano music. They are not transcriptions, but music that Abrams' deeply loves and wished to be able to play on the piano. Abrams considers this series his most important legacy to music and feels that Opera For Piano is adding some glorious music to the performing pianist's repertoire.

The BREW: Aaron Novik's Samuel Suite & Dirty Dan, Eval Dan
Saturday October 18, 8:00pm
$10 member, $15 general
JCC East Bay
1414 Walnut Street, Berkeley
Aaron Novik's ten-piece band presents an avant chamber-jazz rumination on the life of Novik's grandfather, who immigrated to America from a small village in WWI Poland. Samuel and Aaron passionately debated music-the grandfather particularly loved Bach's cantatas, a curious irony, that being a Jew, his favorite music was about Jesus. This religious oxymoron serves as the impetus for the sad and loving suite, in which Novik employs Jewish scales in the chorale style to create a sort of Jewish equivalent to Bach's Christian ones.
He uses different variations on the harmonic minor scale, the backbone of most klezmer and Jewish songs, with especially intriguing-and practically never used-scales starting on the second, third, sixth and seventh degrees.
To kick off the show, Dan Fries and Dan Cantrell of Dirty Dan, Eval Dan trek down another heretofore unexplored path for klezmer, combining the evocative rhythms and melodies of flamenco with traditional klezmer idioms. This fresh fusion melds beautifully, resulting in a crisp and irresistible sound hovering somewhere between Zaporozhye and Málaga.
Co-presented by the Jewish Music Festival, Berkeley Hillel, Polish Arts and Culture Foundation and the Jazzschool
Tickets available at the door

A Yiddish Winterreise for Darfur, Sunday 19 October at The Church of Our Most Holy Redeemer, Exmouth Market, EC1
On Sunday, 19 October we will be giving what we consider to be our most important performance yet. A Yiddish Winterreise is a cycle of songs in Yiddish performed by Mark Glanville (Bass-Baritone) and Alexander Knapp (Piano), which aims to replicate the emotional journey of Schubert's original, but in a Holocaust context. From the outset it was conceived both as a way of building bridges and a means of lending support to the victims of modern genocides.
The concert will be given at the Church of our Most Holy Redeemer, Exmouth Market, London EC1, Sunday 19 October at 19.30. Minimum charge £10. We urge you to attend.
