In my most recent "Ruthless Cosmopolitan" column, I wrote about the "Other Europeans" project and the symposium I took part in in Weimar, Germany.
Mark Rubin has posted some videos showing early rehearsals of the Klezmer and Roma bands involved in the project, which is sponsored by the Yiddish Summer Weimar, the Jewish Culture Festival in Krakow and the KlezMORE Festival in Vienna. Mark plays tuba and bass in the Yiddish band.
His videos shed fascinating light on the creative process as the two bands prepare similar but different/different but similar performance repertoire based on mainly Moldovan sources.
I'm posting a couple of them below, but you can access them all through Mark's youtube channel (click the link above). He has also posted various other clips from Yiddish Summer Weimar.
Thanks, Mark!
