Putting a new spin on classic klezmer, Schmaltz & Pepper combines chamber music with jazz and infuses it all with a bit of schmaltz! A uniquely virtuosic and entertaining chamber ensemble, the quintet performs original music inspired by klezmer, Yiddish swing, jazz, and classical music. The groundbreaking ensemble is redefining the traditional boundaries of Yiddish music, blending classical mastery with innovative compositions and soulful arrangements. Join us for this special evening at The Ora, presented in partnership with the Jewish Federation of Sarasota-Manatee.
