Performed by students and faculty. Band under the direction of Mark Kovnatskiy, who also composed the Kolomeyke (3rd piece of music). Steve Weintraub, Vivien Zeller, faculty, and Sarah Myerson, student, prepared the dancers.
i'm a firm believer that music brings people together. We need more of that.
I felt uplifted and joyous after viewing this video. After the Holocaust , we must have poetry, dance and music, or else evil wins. This video is a Jewish triumph, showing by example, that humanity in its very best forms can survive the unspeakable. Thank you, beloved musicians and dancers. Robbie
To the dance leader you are of the delight and generous spirit with which we can all live beautiful ❤️
Beautiful and Graceful ❤
Will never forget what was going on here 70/80 years...but I give credit to the new generation and a better future...
Great stuff, wonderful to see such happiness.

What do you call this couple hand dance?
it's a dance we invented that summer in Weimar based on German Wikler and Scandinavian Slangspolslka. We called it Tsepl Tants (Braid - like a hair braid- Dance ) The main rule is that the lead always keep the follow moving in a forward (towards their nose) direction. Stepping is to the music, ad lib. Many kinds of hand braiding can be utilized.
@@dancinstevechicago Thank you so much!
@@dancinstevechicago I love the liberal movements in such a harmonical manner. It really is a artform, where everyone is able to add to
and pls dont be afraid of my pfp. M no antisemit person at all. Its just cultural and philosophical
i am just but one of the humble but also very weird beings of the world that poeple hope to forget the next way.
Disconformity should be no reason for discomfortability
Old sins cast long shadows.
Very poetic. And now the question is: what specific old sins can be seen in this particular video?
I have very mixed feelings about this video. On one hand performing Yiddish music and dance in Weimar turns my stomach - performing for our murderers. If they'd had their way, no Jew would be alive today. On the other hand . . . a little music and a little dancing, what could hurt?!
Do the math. The war ended 70 years ago. To have been old enough to be a consenting-adult Nazi, one would now have to be 85 or so.
We don't believe in "racial" guilt. Let's not slide down to the Nazi level.
A program like Yiddish Summer Weimar is way to in some way repair the damage and revive the lost culture. The other alternative is to do nothing, and no longer have a Jewish presence. It should be noted that almost all of the participants, musicians and dancers, are non-Jewish and mostly German.

Point taken. However, as I said, I have mixed feelings.
+Roman - This is Alan Bern, I'm the Director of Yiddish Summer Weimar. I invite you to come and meet some of the Jews and non-Jews that participate in our festival each year and see whether it's so easy to hate.
Emptiness. ‘Arian’ citizens dancing 💃 enthusiastically
the music and culture of a people once there abundantly yet slaughtered by their grand parents generation. It’s like celebrating the result of the final solution. Some write here that it’s a triumph of jewish culture. What ? Without jews ? Prague has jewish monuments. Safed by
the German nazi gov. of Czechia, Heydrich who wanted to keep them as a memory of what once was.
Now nicely cleared. That’s what this makes me think of. That is the emptiness. Even when these people themselves are innocent.
It’s too ironic.
