MeranoKlezmer 2026 goes Argentina

Merano has a fascinating Yiddish history. Anyone who rediscovers it will also become acquainted with ‘Klezmer music’ and many beautiful songs in the Yiddish language – long-lost treasures of a vanished world: ‘Klezmer’ is more than just a style; it is a memory, a language, a history, a ritual dance full of life, a culture.
Admission by voluntary donation.
