Welcome to Yiddish Summer Weimar 2011, July 6 - August 14!
2011 special topic: Ashkenaz, the matrix of Yiddish and German cultures.
>From its 10th century origins in the Rhineland through its great 
flourishing in Eastern Europe and the New World, from its near 
annihilation in the Holocaust to its surprising international resurgence 
in the last 30 years, Yiddish culture has been profoundly influenced by 
German culture. This year, many of our workshops, concerts and other 
public events explore this special relationship with the help of 
colleagues from German folk music and dance.

Innovative, intensive workshops in klezmer music, Yiddish song, dance, 
language and culture for students at every level, from beginners through 
professionals, taught by teams of the best artists, teachers and scholars 
in the world

Concerts featuring established and rising stars, old masters and new 
discoveries of the Yiddish music world and beyond

Dance balls to live klezmer music, led by master dance teachers

Nightly jam sessions in the outdoor cafs of historic Weimar

A shtim fun harts: Friday-evening celebrations inspired by Shabes, with 
audience participation

Public symposium with renowned scholars and artists

Join us in 2011 for a worldwide unique and pioneering cultural adventure!
