VIDEO-CONCERT: A JOURNEY INTO KLEZMER MUSICAL CULTURE AND YIDDISH SONG
with Gabriele Coen, Pietro Lussu, Barbara Eramo
An online event with saxophonist Gabriele Coen, the greatest Italian exponent of Klezmer music, pianist Pietro Lussu and singer Barbara Eramo, a guest in three pieces of the concert. The concert repertoire is a short journey into Klezmer musical culture and Yiddish song. Klezmer music and Yiddish song share a long and tormented path, which marks four centuries of life and wandering culture, starting from the lands of Eastern Europe to arrive in the United States, where the encounter with jazz will provide new life thanks to key figures such as George Gershwin and Benny Goodman, Mickey Katz and John Zorn, and finally the return in Europe.
