It is a stateless language\, a fusion of old German\, Hebrew-Aramaic and Slavic languages. Secular Yiddish culture thrived in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Yiddish songs have been a central part of the Klezmer music revival since the 1980s. Their diverse range\, combining joy\, humour\, romance\, resignation\, hope and struggle\, includes important resources for these troubled times that are highly relevant to the themes of Refugee Week. For example\, Yiddish songs formed resistance anthems for Jews facing pogroms in Tsarist Russia\, and young newly arrived US immigrants exploited in New York’s garment industry. Some of the best known Yiddish songs were composed in opposition to fascism in the Nazi ghettoes of the Second World War. \nLed by Brighton-based Russian/ Jewish composer\, performer and choir director Polina Shepherd. Song sheets will be provided. \nDates and times of the second and third workshops to be confirmed. \nSuggested fee: £4\nSolidarity fee: £7\nFree participation available \nBOOK HERE \nLocation: The Meeting House chapel is located on the University of Sussex campus.
