Explore ancient melodies and folk tales from around the world.
A modern roots musical ensemble featuring violinist Odetta Hartman, bassist Jamie Mohamdein and guitarist/composer Perry Foster, LETZ are inspired by the combination of sacred Southwest melodies, Eastern European folklore, Borscht Belt ballads, and Yiddish penny songs of the Lower East Side. For this special performance, LETZ will perform original and traditional repertoire through an evocative and experimental interpretation of the Golem – a haunting folktale exploring the conflicts within self-preservation.
This concert will feature a special pop-up exhibition of historical photos by the Borscht Belt Historical Marker Project.
Co-presented with Radio Catskill.
