About NKYO
The National Klezmer Youth Orkester links young musicians and their teachers with klezmer professionals in a unique year-round programme that is putting klezmer on the map.
By training teachers, inspiring students and involving experts, we are securing klezmer's future and bringing the toe-tapping and tearful music with roots in Jewish eastern Europe to new audiences. Our programme includes online and in-person learning, performances, interactive resources, and options to support the programmes. Everyone can find their own way to be part of this hugely enjoyable folk/world music tradition and community!
