Klezmer-ish: The Lockdown Songbook at Manchester Jewish Museum, Cheetham Hill 24 October 2021 Tickets from £9.00 — Book now

Meet Klezmer-ish, four incredibly outward-looking classically trained musicians who met whilst playing with the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra. Drawing inspiration from the music of bygone travellers, Klezmer-ish take their audience on a seamless musical journey, always on the move.

During the period of lockdown, Klezmer-ish dived head first into online technology and continued making music digitally from their homes. Now, for this special performance, they bring songs from ‘The Lockdown Songbook’, as well as tracks from their new album ‘Dusty Road’, also released during the 2020 lockdown.

Join them in celebrating their return to live performance.

This performance takes place as part of Synagogue Nights, a wonderful season of intimate events happening at Manchester Jewish Museum.
