Yiddish Movement Songs of Defiance, Grief & Liberation

Yiddish Movement Songs of Defiance, Grief & Liberation

A concert and Yiddish singing workshop with Brivele and A Glezele Tey

BRIVELE is a Seattle-based duo who braid together Yiddish song, anti-fascist and labor balladry, folk-punk, and contemporary rabble-rousing in stirring vocal harmony.

A GLEZELE TEY invites you into their intimate and enthralling world of klezmer, Yiddish folk song, and tkhines - prayers centering the experiences of women, trans, and gender non-conforming people - set to new melodies.

WORKSHOP - Join members of Brivele + A Glezele Tey for an intimate afternoon of Yiddish folk songs with live musical accompaniment. From old classics to newly written melodies, we will explore the Yiddish song movement and the surge of creativity & cross-generational collaboration happening today.

Songbooks will be provided, and participants will come away with the tools to continue singing and creating new interpretations, translations, and songs of their own. No prior knowledge of Yiddish needed - all are welcome! SEATS ARE LIMITED!
