“Let’s All Sing!”: Discovering Community Through Yiddish Song
Time: 7:00pmProfessor Zeke Levine talks about how Yiddish song has been a fundamental aspect of cultural life within a variety of communities in the United States, from early 20th century urban immigrant enclaves to Yiddish schools and summer camps.
The tradition continues today with contemporary klezmer festivals and workshops. This talk introduces audiences to both the history and repertoire of Yiddish song in America and the communities who have fostered Yiddish music from the 1900s until the present day. “Let’s All Sing” was the title of a 1956 songbook, Lomir Ale Zingen.
