The Klezmer tradition in Israel
Join us for a Zoom conversation with the well-known klezmer player, actor and cultural activist
Avrum-Leib Burstein
We will talk about the Jerusalem and Miron klezmer tradition; the influence of Hasidic tunes on the klezmer world; the place of klezmer music in the Hasidic world, and in the Breslov community in particular. We will also discuss Burstein’s own history; how he established a new generation of klezmers; his activities with “Yung Yidish”; his recordings; and his work as an actor, both on Shtisel and in other films.
(The conversation will be in Yiddish.)
