Ensemble Connect Up Close: Songs of Cultural Transition
In this Up Close performance, Ensemble Connect collaborates with New York’s “ebullient clarinet wizard” (Time Out New York) David Krakauer, who blends genres so seamlessly “you’d almost think that there’s no appreciable difference between jazz, klezmer, and formal classical music” (The Wall Street Journal). This event celebrates 100 years of the YIVO Institute for Jewish Research.
This performance was filmed in Carnegie Hall’s Resnick Education Wing on May 6, 2026.
