The Paula Lerner Visiting Artist Program presents

Rebecca Mac’s Zol Zayn Klezmer Band

The Zol Zayn concert will include music for lively dancing as well as contemplative listening. Zol Zayn melds boisterous and lilting melodies from old-country Yiddishland with new-ear sensibilities and intricate arrangements that will make you dance, laugh and cry—perhaps all at once! Dance leader Adah Hetko will join the band and teach us a variety of dance steps. The essence of the dance is in the spirit of the music, so everyone can participate and enjoy!
