KlezCalendar

Dear Friends & Colleagues,

I'd like to let everyone know that Yiddish Summer Weimar is presenting our first ever "Winter Edition" from February 3-8, consisting of two Master Classes: the Yiddish Vocal Master Class, for both vocalists and accompanists, is being conducted by Yefim Chorny and Susanna Ghergus, and the Yiddish Instrumental Music Master Class is being conducted by Alan Bern and Christian Dawid. Both classes are intended to address the relative lack of professional-level coaching in our field, so they are restricted to professionals or very advanced students. To make sure we keep the focus at that level we're asking people to audition with recordings. Class size is limited to 17. For more information, please see www.yiddish-summer-weimar.de, click on the graphic that says Winter Edition, and please help us spread the word!

Thanks,
Alan Bern

There's klezmer every Tuesday night at Cafe Moto in Williamsburg, Brooklyn.
Music starts about 9:15PM and runs until about 11:45PM.

So come on out! Moto has a great menu, fantastic desserts (esp. the date cake) and brews on tap. It's at 394 Broadway in Brooklyn... can take the J or M subway trains to Hewes St. and Cafe Moto is right under the station—the strange wedge shaped building at the corner in the middle of the intersection. No cover, a hat is passed. There's klezmer every Tuesday night with some random assortment of Michael Winograd, Jake Shulman-Ment, Jeff Perlman and Pete Rushefsky and their friends.
