World-renowned Philly-local klezmer trombonist Dan Blacksberg presents the Return of the Big Yiddish Dance Party! The Big Yiddish Dance Party is Philadelphia's biggest klezmer dance party where people can Freylekh and bop to some of the best klezmer music anywhere! Yiddish dancing to klezmer music is the one of the sweetest ways to gather together and celebrate our shared connections. Holding hands, moving around in the circle, each person adding their individual spice into the group, it all adds up to a collective expression of human joy.
The music will be provided by an all-star band led by Dan Blacksberg. Featuring Michael Winograd (The Honorable Mentshn, Vulfpeck) on clarinet, Christina Crowder (Di Naye Kapelye, Klezmer Institute) on accordion, Zoe Guigeno (Honorable Mentshn, Laura Cortese) on bass, and Dave Licht (Klezmatics) on drums, this band will play klezmer as delicious as a fresh latke right out the fryer. Veterans of the concert stage and simchas alike, these musicians know how to get your tukhes (butt) out on the dance floor!
