MAKOMNY

A NEW KIND OF JEWISH ​COMMUNITY

KLEZMER YOUTH BAND:
Yet Another Way for our Youth to Engage!


Calling all student musicians!
Be part of MakomNY's brand new Klezmer group!

INTERESTED? PLEASE COMPLETE REGISTRATION BELOW!

We'll have fun learning about, playing, and performing Klezmer music -- a kind of Jewish folk music that includes a wide range of styles, from traditional to jazz-y. Fiddler-on-the-Roof music is one style, but there are many variations. Professional musician, band leader, and composer Aaron Alexander will lead the group. He has performed all over the world and teaches students and groups of all ages.

Who can join:
5th-12th Graders with at least 1 year playing experience on any instrument.  

When: 
Thursdays 4:30pm-6pm at the Bethpage Worship Center
     February 9, 16
     March 2, 9, 16, 30
     April 20, 27
     May 4, 18

[If we need to cancel a session due to inclement weather or for any other reason, we will do our best to find a make-up date.]

'Performance' at Musical Shabbat Friday, May 19.

Students will need to bring their own instrument and music stand -- sheet music and snacks will be provided. Space is limited.

Fee: $360 includes all sessions and 1 performance at Musical Shabbat in Bethpage (Friday, May 19), music, and all related costs.

(There is a minimum number of students to make this program go!)
