International Jewish Music Festival -- Amsterdam
The 15th edition of the International Jewish Music Festival will be held in the brand new concert halls of the Amsterdam Conservatory. We welcome back the winners from last year's international competition for a weekend filled with music.The ensembles will give concerts and workshops in the most diverse Jewish music sub-genres: hip-hop and reggae for kids, Yiddish song, Sephardic music, klezmer and Balkan music, close harmony and classical.
The free Open Podium gives starting ensembles and soloists a chance to take the stage and show what they've got. The bustling Jewish Cultural Market will feature booksellers, CD's, sheet music and various Jewish cultural organisations. And our grand prize winner from last year, She'Koyokh, will host a swinging Jam Session, also free and open to everyone.
Our generous sponsors make possible an array of free events, low-cost concerts & workshops, and senior and student discounts, ensuring the most diverse, accessible, and successful festival ever!
