Sunday December 22, 2024 2:30pm - 3:45pm EST
Yiddish New York is an explosion of sound. Workshops are taking place all day, filled with people making more and more klezmer! In this workshop, we’re going to act as ethnographers collecting folk music from different regions of YNY. Then, we’ll sneak back to our Kleztronica lab, where we’ll make these recorded materials into rocking musical collages, built for the rave. We’ll learn how to chop audio, pick out all the juicy parts, and perform it live by tapping the rhythms into drum machines. ALL LEVELS are welcome, no experience with electronic music or recording necessary!!
