The Kadya Project: Voices of the Yiddish Fidl
Wednesday, April 3 at 7 PM
Workmen's Circle/Arbeter Ring
247 West 37th Street, NYC
Three phenomenal women musicians join together in an original collaboration inspired by the music of great traditional Yiddish violinists and the poetry of acclaimed Yiddish writer Kadya Molodowsky (1894-1975). The Kadya Project weaves Molodowsky's poetry with the eloquent Yiddish violin, erasing boundaries, and creating a world where traditional musical materials are also an expression of women's voices—lyrical, lively and thoroughly contemporary.
Featuring Keryn Kleiman, Abigale Reisman and Jeff Warschauer, guitar, mandolin and voice, Adam Moss, violin, and Esther Gottesman, readings
