Just two more days until Christina & The Zamlers: Reimagining the Lost Klezmer Music from the An-ski Expeditions. It’s been a decade since accordionist Christina Crowder last performed in Toronto, at the 2016 Ashkenaz Festival in a trio with Zev Feldman and Zilyin Biret. Check out an excerpt from that performance below, and join us on Thursday night at Holy Blossom Temple for a very special performance. Presented as part of IGNITE!, an arts-centric, community-wide celebration of Hanukah that will bring much-needed joy and light to all those in attendance.
