Nashuwa

Sometimes heartfelt, sometimes spirited and with a twinkle in her eye, Naschuwa lets the audience expe­ri­ence the versa­tility of Jewish music and Jewish humor. Virtuoso and balladic klezmer pieces, Yiddish songs from the world of the Eastern and Central European shtetl, but also from the ghetto, as well as musical excur­sions to the Orient and modern Israel awaken a longing for the Garden of Eden. The rousing perfor­mance of the four musicians as well as stories, anecdotes and back­ground infor­ma­tion on the songs enrich the program. Humor is a medicine that makes life easier and reflects its profound side. Naschuwa is part of a culture of remem­brance that fights against forget­ting and repres­sion and at the same time reminds us that life goes on in all its diversity.
