YAM Ensemble

In the organizer's words:

The YAM Ensemble brings together 30 brilliant young musicians from Turkey, Greece and Germany to explore a fascinating musical heritage. For centuries, Jewish, Christian and Muslim communities around the Mediterranean and the Black Sea shared and exchanged music, song and dance, each community contributing its own local style. "YAM", which means "sea" in Yiddish and Hebrew, is a tribute to the intertwined Greek-Turkish, Sephardic and Yiddish cultural and musical traditions of the region. Thanks to old recordings and living master musicians, these shared cultural expressions serve today as an example of harmonious coexistence and emphasize the universal human need for play, song and dance.

Under the direction of Ilya Shneyveys and Sarah Myerson, the 30-piece YAM Ensemble creates and performs suites that seamlessly alternate between intricate arrangements and playful improvisation, reviving and reinventing this rich musical heritage for the present day.

Admission: 20,00 € / 10,00 €
