The Promiscuous World of Jewish Music, with Josh Horowitz

Little-known themes of Jewish music are explored by Josh Horowitz 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.

Four successive Mondays: March 13, 20, 27, April 3, all 7-8:30pm

Presented by New Lehrhaus on Zoom only.
