Contemporary Yiddish psych/folk quartet Midwood continues its residency at the Museum of Jewish Heritage with a special collaboration with world famous Armenian-American oud player Ara Dinkjian and Turkish qanun virtuoso Tamer Pinerbasi. The connections of klezmer and the music of the Ottoman Empire run deep, and this joining of artistic forces brings the sonic possibilities to a new level.
Connected by their immersion in the music of their ancestors, Midwood, Dinkjian and Pinerbasi are also not afraid to explore the modern musical landscape and the cross-cultural connections that can be made. Join them for a night of music, both as individual groups and in playful collaboration.
