Metropolitan Klezmer

METROPOLITAN KLEZMER, established in 1994, brings eclectic exuberance to Yiddish musical genres from all over the map. Performing vibrant versions of lesser-known gems from wedding dance, trance, folk, swing and tango styles, as well as soundtrack material from vintage Yiddish films, they re-invent tradition with both irreverence and respect.

Our special projects include:

METROPOLITAN KLEZMER's Jubilation! 25th Anniversary Octet Concerts Series was made possible in part with public funds from Creative Engagement.
