A Klezmer Cine-Concert

Wednesday, April 6, 7:00 PM
Mittleman Jewish Community Center (6651 SW Capitol Highway)
Free and open to all

Join us for a night of "klezmer and a movie!" This exciting cine-concert event  pairs live, original music from legendary musical artists with an iconic Jewish silent film. Enjoy the stirring original score composed and performed live by klezmer violinist  Alicia Svigals and celebrated silent film pianist Donald Sosin, as the newly-restored cinema classic The Ancient Law contrasts the closed world of an Eastern European shtetl with the liberal mores of 1860s Vienna.

This program is cosponsored by Congregation Beth Israel, Congregation Neveh Shalom, Eastside Jewish Commons, Jewish Federation of Greater Portland, Oregon Jewish Museum and Center for Holocaust Education, Mittleman Jewish Community Center, and the Portland State University Harold Schnitzer Family Program in Judaic Studies
