Boston’s best klezmer band is heading to farm country! This once-in-a-lifetime concert by Shirim Klezmer Orchestra will take place on the conserved farm owned by Lynn Caponera and Arthur Yorinks. Enjoy the passion and contagious energy of this internationally-acclaimed band along with the tastes of Eastern Europe.
The Shirim Klezmer Orchestra is well known for Pincus and the Pig: A Klezmer Tale, a collaboration with Maurice Sendak and Arthur Yorinks. In this delightful recasting of Prokofiev's Peter and the Wolf, each of the characters is identified with a specific instrument. Sendak and Yorinks worked on the story and Sendak performed as the narrator both at its premiere and on Shirim’s wonderful recording.
