REGISTER FOR BWC'S TASTE OF YIDDISHKlezmer Jam

Do you want to learn the foundations of klezmer music? Do you love to play klezmer music and want to help grow the local community of klezmorim? Join the Boston Workers Circle’s monthly drop-in klezmer jam! We will develop and play a shared repertoire. Let's make music together whether you're playing the melody, the secund (accompaniment), or contributing to the rhythm section. We'll practice playing the music by ear, a traditional form of learning klezmer. Reading music is not required.

This is a workshop and jam and is ideal for musicians who are proficient with their instruments and want to learn or develop their klezmer repertoire, technique, and style. We will be meeting once a month and all types of instrumentalists are welcome. The BWC monthly workshop and jam is designed to be an inclusive and welcoming community especially for new participants as we work to create an environment where everyone is supported and empowered to participate.

Schedule:

We will be meeting the second Tuesday of the month:
Oct. 13th,
