Caravan Orchestra and Choir in Weimar, Germany

August 17 @ 21:00 - 22:00 UTC+0

Every year, Caravan Orchestra and Choir invites around 40 young musicians from Israel / Palestine and Germany to for an intensive rehearsal period and concerts – originally in both countries, as well as fun social activities, workshops and excursions. Together with the artistic directors, participants explore both East European Jewish (Yiddish), East Mediterranean and Middle Eastern music traditions. It is the synthesis of those cultures that makes the sound of the Caravan Orchestra unique. While having clear differences in the repertoire and style, these traditions share some forms, tonal material and, most importantly, a performance philosophy with similar approach to improvisation, ornamentation, modality and many other concepts that we discover again each time.
