A shtim fun harts

July 26 Fri @Musikschule 20:00

Directed by Sasha Lurje and Sveta Kundish with the help of Yiddish Summer Faculty, Artists-in-Residence, Participants and you, our guests!

A very special event and a festival favorite since 2010, A shtim fun harts is an audience-participation event inspired by the spirit of Shabes. In traditional Jewish life Shabes is a day of rest, prayer, reflection and community. Inspired by that tradition, we invite you to join us on Friday night to share songs, music and stories, not as our audience but as our guests. The teachers and participants will bring in their own personal stories, favorite songs, melodies, even jokes and anything else they feel like sharing, and we invite you to do the same. Neither a concert nor a religious event, A shtim fun harts is a time set aside to celebrate being together. 

Since the teachers, artists, students and guests of Yiddish Summer Weimar change from week to week, A shtim fun harts is unique each time it happens. Join us!
