What does a klezmer play at Christmas time! Well, on the one hand, there is the Hanukkah festival, which fits well into the dark season with lots of lights and delicious food and great melodies. And on the other hand, did you know that “Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer”, “White Christmas” and many other Christmas hits were written by Jewish composers?

Helmut Eisel (clarinets) & Sebastian Voltz (piano) use these components to knit an unconventional Christmas concert that invites different cultures to a convivial and peaceful coexistence.

One can perhaps even understand that in earlier times Christian children went to their Jewish friends to celebrate Hanukkah together. At Christmas, the Jewish children would then join the Christian children to marvel at the Christmas tree… Everyone was happy and respected the different customs!

After the concert there are small appetizers and always a full glass according to taste. Admission to the concerts is free, but we would be delighted if you would make an appropriate donation to enable the small-scale culture with KLArinettenanteil at Obere Königstraße 15 to continue in the future.
