Yiddish Joy Meets Swinging Live Magic in Bielefeld
On July 5, 2026, the group Klezjazz will bring their distinctive program to the Johanneskirche Quelle (ev.) and will connect traditional Yiddish songs and dances with their own swinging compositions. The result is a concert experience full of rhythm, feeling, and fine surprises.
An Evening Between Klezmer, Jazz, and Storytelling
Klezjazz stands for music that instantly evokes images: clear clarinet sound, springy piano, a precise drumming foundation, and bass lines that carry the space. For almost 20 years, the ensemble has been delighting its audience with lively and emotional performances. The mix of tradition and modern playing style gives the pieces a special tension.
Audience Proximity and Musical Dynamics
Particularly defining is the way the band creates their live atmosphere. Bassist and singer Jürgen Wiese humorously engages the audience, while Timur Isakov on clarinet and saxophone explores the range between classical lines and improvisational freedom. Johannes Schäfermeyer enriches the repertoire with his own pieces, while Dieter Nowak provides the rhythmic foundation. This creates a stage performance that feels immediate and vibrant.
Experience That Resonates
The recent history of the band speaks for itself: performances at world music festivals, a TV concert for Channel 21, and a concert tour through Lithuania showcase the stylistic range and stage routine of the quartet. Klezjazz does not rely on mere nostalgia but on a fresh orchestration of well-known melodies and elegant synchronization of the instruments.
Strong Setting in the Johanneskirche Quelle
The Johanneskirche Quelle provides a fitting setting for this format: intimate, focused, and close to the musicians. Those who appreciate Jewish sound traditions, lively improvisation, and emotional live moments will find a special concert here in Bielefeld.
Conclusion: Klezjazz promises an evening full of musical color, humor, and touching energy. Anyone wanting to experience Klezmer in a fresh guise should see this concert live.
