The Berliner Philharmoniker are playing a Klezmer night
OrchestrasThe orchestra’s American concertmaster Noah Bendix-Balgley will be leading a late-night concert of klezmer music, the distinctive genre of Jewish wedding bands that roamed eastern Europe until the 1930s.
Noah will be soloist in his own Fidl-Fantazye, a klezmer concerto for violin and chamber orchestra. There will also be a performance of Yizkor by Ödön Pártos, starring principal violist Amihai Grosz, and two works by Samuel Adler.
It’s a Saturday night show on April 22. Tickets here.
(Karajan wouldn’t know where to put his beat.)
this would be worth a trip to Berlin for me
NBB played his piece with the Baltimore Symphony two weeks ago. It’s pretty good, and superbly played, no surprise.
Don’t understand your comment about Karajan who was a nazi.
No he was not.
