Eight leading artists from the world of Yiddish music come together to give voice to the poetry of Yiddish-speaking women. Commissioned by Yiddish Summer Weimar, this ambitious project sets these remarkable texts to newly created, 21st century Yiddish music that embraces a rich spectrum of sounds, textures, and styles—from lyrical song to techno, from klezmer-inspired traditions to contemporary pop.
In this concert, the words of Yiddish women poets find powerful new expression through the creativity and artistry of a new generation of performers.
Don’t miss this vibrant transcontinental musical encounter, featuring the exceptional talents of Chaia (YL-Yiddishland), Flora Curzon (UK), Ida Gillner (SE), Shura Lipovsky (NL), Anna Lowenstein (UK), Sarah Myerson (US), Polina Shepherd (UK), and Francesca Ter-Berg (UK).
Together they create an evening that is at once deeply rooted in tradition and boldly contemporary—a celebration of Yiddish women’s voices for our time.
