SISTERS OF SHEYNVILLE Workmen's Circle Yiddish Concert
Thursday, June 23, 2011. Evans Amphitheater, 7:30pm.
FREE ADMISSION (no ticket necessary). [buy tickets]
The Sisters of Sheynville were founded by Isabel Fryszberg, and Lenka Lichtenberg, two talented vocalists who share the Eastern European Jewish family experience and a driving passion for their music. This soulful group revitalizes Yiddish swing and klezmer music from the golden age of the mid-20th century fused with contemporary jazz. Inspired by the Barry Sisters' Yiddish swing vocals of the 30's and 40's, this high-energy, all-female sextet features intricate three-part harmony supported by a crack ensemble of some of Toronto's leading jazz and klezmer instrumentalists. In memory of Eugenia and Henry Green
