Klezmer Music Concert
Address
Sunday, May 7
5pm
Klezmenschen
Klezmenschen bring the joy of Klezmer music to The Lebanon Historical Society Museum.
What is Klezmer music? Remember the wedding dances in Fiddler on the Roof? The clarinet solos of Benny Goodman? It’s a joyful music that makes you want to take hands in a circle and dance, but it can make you nostalgic for a vanished world. The Klezmenschen of Eastern Connecticut, led by Roz Etra on accordion and keyboard, featuring Faye Ringel, keyboard and vocals, have been playing together for over a decade. Joining them are band members who play drums, clarinet, fiddle, trumpet, and other instruments,performing “Jewish jazz” arrangements of traditional melodies, songs from the Yiddish Theater,
and Israeli dance tunes.
Concert begins after the Lebanon Historical Society Annual Members Meeting.
Refreshments and social hour to follow the concert.

located at 856 Trumbull Hwy., Lebanon
