Kapelye, a vibrant, internationally acclaimed Klezmer Trio, will perform at Bergen Community College on Sunday, November 1, 2009 in the Anna Maria Ciccone Theatre. Tickets are $14 for adults and $12 for students, children and seniors (65+).
Kapelye is one of the original bands responsible for the renewed interest in Klezmer music, a tradition of celebratory secular Jewish music that began in the 15th century. The band is now in its 25th year of recording and touring worldwide. The trio’s highly spirited and passionate performances create a unique brand of entertainment that reaches out to each member of the audience. Their popular appeal has earned them a new fan base with teens and college age fans of alternative rock and folk music.
The New York Times hailed the Kapelye as, “Of the many Klezmer bands, the one that comes closest to the ideal is Kapelye.”
The performance is part of Bergen’s “This & That from Here & There” Performing Arts Series. For ticket information or for a full schedule of events, please call Bergen’s Office of Community and Cultural Affairs at (201) 447-7428 or go to www.bergen.edu/cca
