Originally played to accompany Jewish festivals, klezmer will be performed in this evening concert by solo clarinetist Filip Brezovšek and the Salzburg Philharmonic Orchestra in a concert setting.

All folk music is beautiful, but I have to say that Jewish music is unique! It is so multifaceted, can appear cheerful and in reality be deeply tragic. It is almost always laughter through tears.
