Josh Horowitz: The Promiscuous World of Jewish Music (Zoom Only)

In partnership with KlezCalifornia

Little-known themes of Jewish music are explored here via the music of Jewish weddings, the synthesis of “Gypsy” and Jewish music, the case of a 19th-century traveling Hasidic musician, an analysis of the only surviving pre-war Yiddish opera, the story of Lilith, and the case of an instrument that previously defined klezmer music but has since been forgotten.

4 sessions: Mondays, March 13, 20, April 3, 10 @ 7–8:30pm on Zoom
