San Francisco Yiddish Combo

Blues and moves

A love of klezmer, blues, and bluegrass brought the San Francisco Yiddish Combo together. Led by cellist Rebecca Roudman, the quintet incorporates elements of jazz, folk, klezmer, and hip-hop into its lively performances of Jewish, and non-Jewish, musical traditions. The show begins with an informal dance lesson, and audience members can enjoy light hors d’oeuvres (knishes!) and beverages.

Wednesday 7/12. $10, 7pm. Congregation Beth Israel, 301 E. Jefferson St. cbicville.org
