October 2011

October 23 (Sunday)
Veretski Pass, Beall Hall, University of Oregon, Eugene, OR. (Klezmer Music from Eastern Europe) 8 p.m., $12 general admission, $8 students and seniors.
From Mark Levy: "Veretski Pass combines the power and energy of Old World music with a modern sensibility, creating a sound that is both deeply respectful of its roots and, at the same time, makes you want to dance in the aisles. The trio performs a collage of dance suites from Moldavia and Bessarabia; Jewish melodies from Poland, Romania, and Ukraine; Hutzul wedding music from Carpathian Ruthenia; and Rebetic aires from Asia Minor, seamlessly integrated with original compositions." More info: Mark at 541-346-2852 or mlevy@uoregon.edu .
