Klezmerama has built up a fine reputation for their original, energetic & captivating performances of klezmer music. Now, with a new, predominantly female formation, they aim to put women in the spotlight through their (re) interpretations of Yiddish songs with their own distinctive style.
Yiddish, the language of the eastern European jews is also commonly referred to as “Mame-loshn” , mother tongue, which it literally was. It was the language spoken in the home & street, and whilst (some) men learnt Hebrew, Yiddish was the language that women & working class men read avidly. This inspired a thriving cultural scene of books, theatre & cinema at the turn of the 20th century and it became the language of revolutionary Jewish left wing politics. Yiddish as a language suffered greatly from the Holocaust and the suppression (and at times violent prohibition) of the language in the new Zionist Israeli state, however it has continued as a minority language particularly because of its cultural significance.
Through Yiddish songs written about, for, and by women, Klezmerama celebrates this rich cultural heritage, respecting the original Yiddish texts while also lyrically adapting them into Spanish and English. In addition, they incorporate original compositions and melodies inspired by this repertoire, all composed and arranged by the women in the group.
Klezmerama has performed at prestigious festivals such as the Tres Culturas Music Festival in Murcia, the Fundación Tres Culturas de la Isla de la Cartuja (Seville), the 3 Culturas Festival in Frigiliana, and the International Sephardic Music Festival in Córdoba, and were prize winners at the Folkez Blai 2023 competition (Basque Country).
