Tsukunft/Future: The New Klezmorim

We are thrilled to be performing as part of Yiddish New York. Join us for an evening of music by leading emerging artists in the international klezmer scene. Goyfriend/Друг-Гой (awesome name!) is an exciting new collaboration exploring Jewish/Slavic intercultural dialog through song by the Litvakus Ensemble, led by charismatic Belarussian-Jewish clarinetist Zisl Slepovitch and the divine Berlin-based, Latvian-Yiddish chanteuse Sasha Lurje. The evening also features a rising new force on the Brooklyn Yiddish music scene – Tsibele. Yes, that means “onions”, and this band lives up to its name in delivering Yiddish music with Balkan spicing. Tsibele is Eleonore Weill (vocals, flutes, hurdy-gurdy), Eva Boodman (trumpet), Hannah Temple (accordion), Zoë Aqua (violin) and Zoe Guigueno (bass). The night will close with a raucous set of ecstatic Hasidic simkhe music, as Jordan Hirsch and Overnight Kugel perform classic Hasidic wedding music of the 50’s, 60’s, and 70’s. Jill Gellerman will lead dancing.

JFREJ Meyer Awards

Tsibele is the house band for the Jews for Racial and Economic Justice (JFREJ) Meyer Awards. With special musical guests Dr. Samuel Torjman Thomas, April Centrone, Leah King, and Mary Feaster.

https://fundraise.jfrej.org/events/-/e142536

JFREJ established the Rabbi Marshall T. Meyer Risk Taker Award in 1995 to honor people and organizations who have taken extraordinary risks in the pursuit of justice. Rabbi Meyer, who served as the rabbi of Congregation B'nai Jeshurun, was a fighter for social justice, a man of vision who was willing to put acceptance and safety at risk to struggle for a better world. The awardees continue this inspiring legacy through their work combating all forms of oppression and the risks they have taken in doing so.
