Please join us in remembering our past and celebrating our future with music by Klezmenschen, an Eastern Connecticut musical group who perform a joyful music that also reflects a vanished world in songs that bring you to laughter through tears. The musical program will commemorate Kristallnacht (the Night of Broken Glass), regarded symbolically as the dark beginning of the Holocaust.

What is Klezmer music? Remember the wedding dances in Fiddler on the Roof? The clarinet solos of Benny Goodman, the trumpet of Ziggy Elman? Or today’s young musicians who mix Afro-pop and hip-hop with Eastern European melodies in the ultimate fusion? All these and more are Klezmer. All are welcome to come and partake of the joy and gladness to all who listen to this music.

Refreshments will be served.
