FIGELIN CONCERT

Come see some of
the hottest traditional fiddlers around in an all-women, all-fiddle extravaganza
that mixes North German dance music,
songs and ballads with Jewish klezmer music, Hasidic melody, and Yiddish song.

Put them together and the effect is explosive
wild fiddles, earthy grooves and three vibrant voices!

Figelin is an exciting new collaboration of two internationally acclaimed violinists. Deborah Strauss is a pioneering Yiddish performer and educator who has been at the forefront of the international klezmer and Yiddish music scene for more than 20 years. Vanessa Vromans is one of the most talented musicians of the new klezmer generation. Originally from Australia and now based in Berlin, she is admired both for her mastery of traditional klezmer style and for pushing its boundaries through improvisation and new compositions.
