SUMMARY:Niki Jacobs Performance at JFEST Media Sponsored Event
DESCRIPTION:Niki Jacobs Performance at JFEST\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis performance features The Ballad of Mauthausen\, one of the most gorgeous pieces ever written about the Second World War. It is a collaboration between the Greek poet Iakovos Kambanellis\, who was a survivor of Kamp Mauthausen\, and Mikis Theodorakis\, the famous Greek composer banned for his activism against social injustice. Commemorating 75+ years of liberation from the Nazi regime\, Niki Jacobs re-addresses this musical piece using a beautiful Yiddish translation to\, not only emphasize and give voice to those who perished or fled Eastern-Europe before\, during and after the Second World War\, but to also show that the Yiddish language is still alive. \nYiddishland California subscribers can obtain special discounted tickets by clicking the orange button below. \nTo register: https://yiddishlandcalifornia.org/niki-jacobs-performance-at-jfest/?fbclid=IwAR3Ak-OutQQ6IloPcv9mAKeuxiSJVciH1M46W9ERCMhLlLFXgmsj6Y-zeC8

SUMMARY:Through a Ukrainian Looking Glass: Dovid Hofshteyn’s Soviet Yiddish Translations of Taras Shevchenko
