Join us before the Oysland show / klezmer party at Jamboree for a special Yiddish dance class!
Ilana Cravitz and Olga Baron are both experienced and expert leaders in Yiddish dances. As well as calling the dances during the evening ahead, they are offering this class beforehand for anyone who?d like to learn the steps and warm-up for the night. The style of dances include Eastern European line and circle dances, hora/bulgar/freylachs, as well as a variation of the square dance, called a Sher.
The steps are usually not very fast or complicated! No previous experience is needed. These dances are for family celebrations and are designed to be easy and fun for everyone.
Following the class we will have a concert from the wonderful Oysland, embodying the new generation of Yiddish roots music, serving up an exuberant and soulful cocktail of wedding songs and lamenting lullabies. The band swoop through centuries of traditional pieces gleaned from Eastern Europe with panache, adding wider scopes from the Balkans, whilst preserving all the essential & original ingredients. Expect, heartfelt melodies, foot-stomping beats and echoes of a bygone era. Further dances will be conducted through the night!
