Learn to Play Klezmer Workshop – Any Instrument Will Do

Details

Nov 8, 2020

From the series: Klezmer Workshop

The first program of The Lowell Milken Fund for American Jewish Music’s Learn to Play series will focus on the exploration of instrumental klezmer music.

Led by Dr. Lorry Black, acclaimed percussionist, klezmer musician, and Associate Director of the Lowell Milken Fund, this event invites attendees to participate in a guided two-part workshop exploring creative ways to use any instrument in the klezmer setting. Musicians playing both traditional and non-traditional klezmer instruments will benefit from this learning experience.

This event is made possible by the Lowell Milken Fund for American Jewish Music at The UCLA Herb Alpert School of Music with additional generous support from the David Vickter Foundation.
