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.
