Focused Techniques in Accompanying Yiddish Dance: A Hands-On Workshop for Klezmer Musicians and Yiddish Singers
Deborah Strauss and Cantor Jeff Warschauer
Level: intermediate through advanced/professional

At its best, accompanying Yiddish dance goes far beyond choosing and playing tunes. Phrasing, articulation and even modal modulation can dramatically affect how the dancers feel, how well they are able to express themselves, and ultimately, how much fun they have!
Join dancer and violinist Deborah Strauss and instrumentalist and singer Cantor Jeff Warschauer as they share techniques and secrets developed over thirty-plus years on the dance floor.

This event is part of the 2025 Yiddish Dance Conference. Conference registration is required (free). Please visit the Yiddish Dance Conference page to register.
