Klezmer dance and jam at NEFFA
Sunday April 25, 2010
Dance at 10 AM, jam at 1 PM
Mansfield High School, Mansfield MA
The New England Folk Festival will include two klezmer events.
At 10 AM, there will be a klezmer dance led by Jacob Bloom, with music by Shver un Shviger. It will feature easy traditional Yiddish dances, which can be followed with a minimum of teaching: mostly circle dances, and one or two couple dances, such as the freylakhs, bulgar, slow hora, chusidl, and grand march.
At 1 PM, the band will lead an open klezmer jam. Bring your instruments (or your voice)! No experience necessary, and sheet music will be provided.
