Advanced Intensive Classes

Are you an experienced musician with some Klezmer experience who enjoys learning by ear? We are running a 4-week intensive series in which we will learn, arrange and perform more complex Klezmer repertoire. We welcome instrumentalists (all types of instruments) ages 18+.

If you’re passionate about expanding your musical horizons and connecting with a community of musicians, we’d love to hear from you. Perhaps you are a music teacher who would like to teach Klezmer, or maybe you want some new repertoire to perform?

Let us know if you're interested, and let's bring this vibrant music to life together!
