For health reasons, the event originally scheduled for 9 June has been postponed to 26 July. All tickets already purchased will remain valid for the new date. In case you are not able to attend on the new date, please go to and complete the ticket return form.

Giora Feidman has been moving people with his music for decades. This year, he celebrates 75 years on the stage. For him, music is the language of the soul, with which he connects people across barriers. His clarinet, which he plays like no other, is his voice. Together with pianist Sergej Tcherepanov, Giora Feidman will take the audience into his unique, emotional sound worlds of klezmer, folk and contemporary compositions in the special atmosphere of the Glass Courtyard.

Feidman's appearance at the JMB is part of his “friendship tour” and has also another purpose: after the concert, Giora Feidman will be donating his valuable clarinet to the museum collection.

Giora Feidman

He has received many awards, such as the Echo Klassik Award and the German Federal Cross of Merit for his services to relations between Jews and Germans.
