:: ENG ::
Avant-garde and strikingly new, or simple and traditionalist, Farrell's original song compositions are brought to life by these two worldwide-respected performers of klezmer and Yiddish song. Focusing on new settings of verse by 20th - and 21st - century women poets from North America, Europe, and Israel, the songs portray an intimate and emotional inner realm of love, longing, motherhood, joy, and loss. Kundish and Farrell warmly invite audiences into this poetic musical world they have been creating together since 2013. The combination of rigorous and subtle precision, flights of virtuosity, and emotional presence they bring to the stage make their performances thrilling and satisfying experiences.

Avant-Garde und Innovation, Einfachheit und Tradition, Farrell's Kompositionen werden von diesen renommierten Musikern des Yiddish und Klezmer lebendig gemacht. Sich auf Versformen nordamerikanischer, israelischer und europäischer jiddischsprachiger Dichterinnen des zwanzigsten und einundzwanzigsten Jahrhunderts fokussierend, bebildern die Lieder ein intimes und emotionales Reich der Liebe, der Hoffnungen, Freuden, Mutterschaft, und Verlust. Kundish und Farrell lassen das Publikum in eine Welt der Poesie und Musik eintauchen, die sie gemeinsam seit 2013 erschaffen. Die Verbindung von Raffiniertheit und Präzision, von Virtuosität und emotionaler Gegenwart machen ihre Auftritte zu aufregenden wie überzeugenden Erfahrungen.
