Winter Concert: Yale Strom & Hot Pstromi—Music, Memories, Celebration!

As the city shuts down on December 25th, the MUSEUM AT ELDRIDGE STREET on Manhattan’s historic Lower East Side comes to life for an afternoon of soulful and spirited klezmer MUSIC THAT IS SURE TO ENGAGE THE WHOLE FAMILY!Every year, the Museum is excited to host their annual winter concert, bringing together folks of all ages to celebrate the holiday season in the most beautiful interior in New York City. This year, they are thrilled to welcome back klezmer artist and scholar Yale Strom and his band, Hot Pstromi, who will mix classic Yiddish songs and klezmer melodies with original compositions. You will also hear traditional songs and tunes Yale Strom found during his years of ethnographic field research in Eastern Europe. The number 18 is significant in Jewish numerology, meaning _life_ , and this CONCERT COMES 18 YEARS AFTER YALE STROM LED _A Great Day on Eldridge Street_ in October of 2007, an unprecedented gathering of over 100 klezmer musicians on the steps of the Eldridge Street Synagogue. Two months later, our 20-year restoration was finally complete, and this historical testament to Jewish life became the Museum at Eldridge Street. Join Yale Strom & Hot Pstromi in the place where it all began to celebrate this beautiful milestone together.
