Chaia is a composer known for her Yiddish techno music, sometimes known as "kleztronica" (klezmer + electronica). She joins Lex Rofeberg and Rena Yehuda Newman for a conversation honoring May Day (International Workers' Day). Together they explore the intersection of Yiddish, revolution, and folksong -- which, as it turns out, is an extremely prolific and inspiring intersection!

Er machte den Klezmer weltweit bekannt. Doch mit seiner Musik verbindet Giora Feidman auch den Wunsch, Menschen wieder zu vereinen. Giora Feidman steht wie kaum ein anderer für die Idee vom «Frieden durch Musik». Doch wie tragfähig ist diese Vision in einer polarisierten Welt? Die Klarinette ist Giora Feidmans (*1936) «Mikrofon der Seele»: Sie lacht, klagt und erzählt Geschichten. Er wächst in Buenos Aires in der Klezmer-Tradition seiner Familie auf. Später spielt er im Israel Philharmonic Orchestra, bevor er in den 1970er-Jahren den Klezmer in die Konzertsäle der Welt bringt. Musik ist für Feidman auch ein Auftrag: Brücken bauen, Versöhnung ermöglichen. Noch mit 90 Jahren steht er auf der Bühne und spricht über seine Vision. Anlässlich seines Geburtstages ordnen Weggefährtinnen und Forschende sein Wirken ein – zwischen Inspiration, Ideal und kritischer Reflexion.

ESSENTIEL, le rendez-vous culture présenté par Sandrine Sebbane. Elle reçoit Joann Sfar pour sa dernière BD « Terre de Sang - Le temps du désespoir » aux éditions Les arènes BD À propos du livre : « Terre de Sang - Le temps du désespoir » paru aux éditions Les arènes BD Nous vivrons était le livre de l'après-pogrom du 7 octobre, Que faire des Juifs ? une réflexion sur l'histoire du judaïsme et de l'antisémitisme, avec une dimension à la fois historique, personnelle et charnelle. Avec Terre de sang, Joann Sfar s'éloigne de la chronique immédiate et de la fresque didactique. Il tend l'oreille aux voix palestiniennes, arabes, bédouines, dans le tumulte d'un conflit insoutenable. Il reprend ici le flambeau du reportage dessiné et parcourt des villes fracturées sur une planète à bout de souffle : Venise, Paris, Ramallah, Naplouse, Hébron, Jérusalem, Tel-Aviv... Aux massacres, aux idéologies, aux mécanismes de haine, il oppose le dialogue qui, même lorsqu'il semble impossible, reste un acte politique puissant. Sfar s'ancre dans la BD du réel, poétique, violente, fraternelle, qui ne sauve rien, mais n'abandonne personne. Joann Sfar est né à Nice en 1971. Il publie sa première bande dessinée en 1994 et signe par la suite plus de 130 titres, dont Petit Vampire, Donjon, Klezmer, Nous vivrons, Que faire des Juifs ?... Histoires pour la jeunesse ou érotiques, heroic fantasy, introspection ou reportage, il visite tous les genres avec un talent unique.

Venues include the Center for Performing Arts on Pleasant Avenue in Minneapolis, as well as Lake Harriet.

- Chiese stanche e depresse, oltre che vuote: che cosa direbbe Gesù se potesse oggi rivolgersi a noi cristiani della parte più ricca del mondo? Probabilmente preferirebbe rivolgere la sua attenzione ad altri, a coloro che hanno davvero fame e sete della sua parola. La meditazione biblica di questa puntata è tenuta dal teologo evangelico italiano Fulvio Ferrario, docente di Teologia sistematica alla Facoltà valdese di Teologia di Roma. «I popoli che un tempo abbiamo evangelizzato» dice Ferrario «ora ci guardano perplessi abbandonare la fede che un tempo abbiamo predicato».- A Poschiavo la Chiesa evangelica riformata ospita il 28 gennaio un concerto di musica klezmer: tradizione tipica di quelle comunità ebraiche dell'Europa centrale e orientale, spazzate via dalla Shoah. Incontriamo Angelo Baselli (clarinetto), che con Gianluca Casadei (fisarmonica) ha realizzato il disco Di un mondo che non c'è più, con l'etichetta Da Vinci Classics. Baselli ci porta a conoscere una vicenda affascinante: la Vernadsky National Library di Kiev conserva un grande patrimonio di spartiti di musiche della tradizione klezmer. Da quei materiali, Baselli e Casadei hanno tratto una selezione di brani che mescolano melodie ucraine, russe, rom, ebraiche, ottomane, citazioni classiche e brani tipicamente occidentali, creando un linguaggio unico e di grande impatto emotivo.

Klezmer music may have its roots in the Jewish communities of Eastern Europe, but it found a home here in NY in the 1920s and 30s, and the klezmer revival that began almost a half century ago was also centered in New York. Clarinetist Michael Winograd has been a major figure on the klezmer music scene for a couple of decades now, both as a composer and as a kind of music historian. His current project is a remake of a 1955 album that flopped at the time and is now considered a classic meeting of klezmer and jazz. That album was called Tanz!, Yiddish for dance, and Michael Winograd leads a stellar lineup of musicians to play some of the tunes, in-studio. 1.

Then, Sina Basila Hickey brings us coverage from a rally organized by No Kings Collective Albany and Capital Region Sanctuary Coalition to stop ICE's detainment of immigrant labor workers at Home Depot parking lots.

Finally, we celebrate Hanukkah with an interview with singer/songwriter and Klezmer musician Adah Hetko about what it means to be Jewish in America.

Though it had a relatively quiet 1955 release, the klezmer album Tanz!, from Dave Tarras and the Musiker Brothers, is now considered a landmark of the genre. On the new album, Michael Winograd Plays Tanz! Live In New York City, Michael Winograd celebrates its legacy. He and his band will perform a few pieces live and talk about the album's influence on him, and preview a show Thursday evening at the Center for New Jewish Culture.

In this episode of The Bandwich Tapes, I reconnect with conductor and educator Aaron Kula, who shaped my summers in the Chautauqua Youth Orchestra at the Chautauqua Institution in New York in 1994 and 1995. We talk about what it means to trust young musicians with major repertoire, including the time we took on Stravinsky's The Rite of Spring, and what that experience taught me about preparation, accountability, and confidence. Aaron shares his philosophy for building ensemble culture: learning every student's name, holding individuals responsible while serving the collective, and making the rehearsal process both rigorous and engaging. We dig into how his multi-genre musical life, from classical training to folk and ethnic traditions, and his deep connection to Jewish music, shaped the way he hears rhythm, style, and culture inside the orchestra. Aaron also explains how conducting changes when moving from the concert stage to ballet, how tempo becomes a real-time collaboration with dancers, and why a conductor has to know when to lead, when to release, and when to stay out of the players' way. This conversation is equal parts music, mentorship, and reflection, and a reminder that the seeds teachers plant can continue to grow for decades. I'm grateful for the chance to say thank you, and for the lessons from those summers that still guide how I work with students and teams today.To learn more about Aaron, visit his website. Thank you for listening. If you have questions, feedback, or ideas for the show, please email me at brad@thebandwichtapes.com.

Dr. Hankus Netsky has devoted his life to researching, documenting, and performing Klezmer music. It is traditional Jewish music with roots in Eastern Europe, introduced to the United States in the 20th century. Klezmer was a signature element of Yiddish theater in New York and Philadelphia and is a mainstay of many Jewish celebrations. Dr. Netsky talks about his own history as a kid in a predominantly black Philadelphia neighborhood, where he played in jazz and blues bands before beginning the search for his own musical roots. His book, Klezmer: Music and Community in 20th Century Jewish Philadelphia, is available on Amazon

Frequently you might hear someone claim that a particular Jewish melody is "mi-Sinai" (literally: "from Mount Sinai," implying "dating back to when Moses received the 10 commandments at Mount Sinai")? Mark Kligman, an ethnomusicologist who directs The Lowell Milken Center for Music of American Jewish Experience, joins Dan and Lex to explore what this term illustrates. In doing so, they explore why "Jewish music" is such a challenging word to define -- along with what Jewish music does for people's lives. This episode is the third in an ongoing mini-series of Judaism Unbound episodes mobilizing Jewish music -- past, present, and future -- as a launching point into conversations about contemporary Jewish life and experience.Head to JudaismUnbound.com/classes to check out our up upcoming courses in the UnYeshiva, beginning in mid-late October.

Alisa Rose is a multi-style violinist and fiddler, composer and educator, and in this episode we're shining a light on her wonderful new album with mandolinist Tristan Scroggins, Speranza. You'll hear about how she found her way to such an interesting and diverse career from learning Old-Time music from retired farmers in Wisconsin as a child to classical training with the legendary Camilla Wicks at the San Francisco Conservatory, where she's come full circle as a teacher. Alisa shared wonderful insights into teaching music, including body awareness and using creativity prompts in her improvisation classes. She shared powerful experiences from her tour in Eastern Europe as an Ambassador of the State Department, and advice about the benefits of organizing house concerts.

She recently released a great album with her newjazz trio project Tryptique with Colleen Allen and George Koller ,and we're featuring music from that album as well as some of her other work, including her Juno-nominated album Two Kites. We talked about her mother, the artist Rose Lindzon, many mentors and influences including Don Thompson, Alan Bern and Marilyn Lerner, and several of Fern's projects including creating silent film music, Klezmer with the Sisters of Sheynville, and her new project of learning the expressive electronic instrument the Haken Continuum.

Happy holidays, everyone. We're bringing you a hacked classic to tide you over while Scott and I take a break to relax and gear up for the new year to hit us like a ton of bricks. This is one of my favorites from a couple of years ago, back in the halcyon days of June 2022—an interview with music professor Meryl Goldberg that I still think about. It's got Cold War intrigue, hidden codes, and Klezmer music. Honestly, I want to make a movie about it, so if your 2025 wishlist includes setting a bunch of money on fire producing a film, let me know. Hope you had a happy holiday and a festive new year. Safe travels if you're on the road, and if you're home, I hope you're relaxing. Enjoy The Phantom Orchestra. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Klezmer music has always been very close to my heart, even as a classical violinist. During the pandemic I attempted to learn Klezmer clarinet, and soon I began collaborating with the great Klezmer(and classical!) violinist Abigale Reisman on her work for Klezmer band and orchestra called Gedanken. Abigale taught me so much about Klezmer music, including the fact that despite its reputation as a clarinet-centric genre, the violin is actually the original voice of the Klezmer sound. I've been wanting to do a show about Klezmer music for a while, and Abigale was the perfect person to talk to, as she has experience in both the classical and Klezmer worlds, and was able to talk about the differences between the two sounds, as well as all of the characteristics that make Klezmer music so instantly recognizable. We also talked about the similiarites between classical and Klezmer music, which classical violinists had the most Klezmer like sound, and how to tell the difference between a traditional Eastern European folk tune and a Jewish Klezmer folk tune. I so enjoyed this conversation and I hope you will too! You'll hear an excerpt of Abigale's band Ezekiel's Wheels at the end of the show, but check them out here:  https://www.youtube.com/@ewklezmer/videos Link to the concert I mentioned at the top of the show:  https://www.br-klassik.de/audio/20240308-on-demand-so-joshua-weilerstein-vilde-frang-strawinsky-schostakowitsch-100.html
