The Klezmatics featuring La Manga

Celebrate Hanukkah with Grammy-winning pioneers of modern klezmer, The Klezmatics, as they mark their 40th anniversary with a festive concert celebrating light, resilience, and radical joy. The program combines music from the acclaimed new album We Were Made For These Times, beloved Hanukkah songs from Happy Joyous Hanukkah—the band’s celebrated collaboration bringing Woody Guthrie‘s long-lost Hanukkah lyrics to life—and fan favorites spanning four decades of groundbreaking music. Blending Yiddish tradition with Black gospel, jazz, Latin rhythms, and global influences, The Klezmatics create a joyful holiday celebration that honors the past while speaking powerfully to the present.
