Speaking of workshops, we’d like to call your attention to this year’s veritable feast of Yiddish language-related offerings. In addition to our immersion program in contemporary Yiddish, you can take workshops in Western Yiddish, Yiddish for Musicians, Introduction to Yiddish Song, Intermediate & Advanced Yiddish Song, Yiddish Song Writing, and Yiddish choir, surrounded by Yiddish music, dance, jam sessions, and everything else that makes Yiddish Summer Weimar unique in Europe.
Are you a conservatory student or early-career professional musician between the ages of 18 and 30? We’ve got two international music projects just for you: YAM Ensemble and Caravan Orchestra & Choir, as well as a specially designed, advanced Introduction to Klezmer & Yiddish Music. Details on how to apply can be found under the respective links above.
To celebrate our 25th anniversary, we’re pulling out all the stops in the Festival Week, August 12th-17th, with many new mini-workshops, a film series, world-class concerts in the evenings, and our Late Night Cabaret for the true night owls. We’ll be posting the full schedule soon on our website.
So, before this newsletter gets too long, just head over to the website and start making plans to join us for what’s going to be a joyful and inspiring Yiddish Summer Weimar 2025! Warmest greetings,
Your YSW team! |
