Preview: Shofar– Klezmer Meets Free Jazz

Shofar

Who? Shofar

Mikolaj Trzaska, Saxophone/bass clarinet

Raphael Roginski, electric guitar

Macio Moretti, drums

Where? Kerrytown Concert House

When? Tuesday November 5, 8pm– TONIGHT!

From the mouth of the band:

“The concept behind Shofar is to carry on the Jewish musical traditions that are still alive for us, while also searching for a common denominator shared by Hasidic music and free jazz.”

No spoiler alerts here, we have no clue what is comin. This show promises an interesting and unusual foray into the sounds of old Jewish folk (it is Sponsored by the Copernicus Endowment and the Frankel Center for Judaic Studies) and the most unbounded improvisatory stuff in jazz. Bring your hasidic grandparents and weird-eared friends. Somethin for everyone!  Kerrytown Concerthouse, 8pm.
