Music Program Presents

An Evening with Michael Alpert, Legend of Yiddish Music

Join us for a rare solo performance by the legendary Yiddish singer, klezmer musician, researcher, and dancer Michael Alpert. A recipient of the 2015 National Heritage Fellowship, Alpert is internationally recognized for his essential contributions to the revival of East European Jewish music and culture since the 1970s. He has performed with pioneering groups such as Kapelye, Brave Old World, The An-Sky Ensemble, and others. He has graciously agreed to stop in at Bard on his way to a performance with Itzhak Perlman’s “In the Fiddler’s House” klezmer extravaganza hosted by The Philadelphia Orchestra. 

Free and open to the public
