The concert at Kennedy Center is presented in partnership with the Embassy of the Republic of Poland in DC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The multilingual repertoire of this project includes songs in Polish, Yiddish, and Hebrew, reflecting the distinct international expressions of interwar Warsaw. As the tango craze swept through Europe, Warsaw became the eastern European capital of tango and bore witness to the birth of the dance form\u2019s most eclectic permutation, combining Slavic and Jewish elements with Argentinian musical influences.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was upon her discovery of one such song, Bialostocki\u2019s \u201cRebecca,\u201d that Olga first fell in love with Yiddish tango, fascinated by how the music reflects the complexity of Polish-Jewish coexistence. Raised a devout Catholic, Olga was inspired to dive deeper into Jewish culture after a life-changing interfaith visit to Auschwitz. After the visit, she began to study Yiddish and made it her mission to bring Yiddish back to the Jewish people. Today, Olga practices Orthodox Judaism and resides in Israel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Olga\u2019s repertoire includes a wide variety of songs from the&nbsp;<strong>1920s<\/strong>,&nbsp;<strong>30s<\/strong>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<strong>40s<\/strong>, some of which were popular tunes in their time, and others that had been forgotten and only recently revived by Olga and her band for a contemporary audience. Olga shares the unique history of each of the melodies with her audience, weaving together compelling stories of Yiddish stars from the Old World. A list of songs can be found at this link, and descriptions with lyrics are available by request.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Last year Olga presented<strong><em>&nbsp;Yiddish Tango from Warsaw<\/em><\/strong>&nbsp;at&nbsp;<strong>Toronto\u2019s Ashkenaz Festival<\/strong>&nbsp;and presented concerts and workshops at the internationally acclaimed klezmer gathering KlezKanada. Olga\u2019s concerts often feature special guest singers and musicians such as legendary singer Slawa Przybylska, acclaimed jazz pianist from Toronto Ron Davis, and leading Israeli performers.

Olga is educated in classical music and graduated with a master\u2019s degree in Cultural Anthropology (Warsaw University).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Born in Warsaw, she divides her time between her hometown and Jerusalem, where she currently resides. She initiates Polish-Israeli music projects and collaborates with organizations promoting Jewish culture in those two countries.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since the very beginning of her creative work, she has been focusing on Jewish music of Ashkenazi roots, especially from borderlands of Poland (Galitzia, Polesye). She has studied Chassidic music, folk Yiddish songs, multilingual Jewish songs, participated in a two-year seminar for Yiddish songs at the Yiddish Theatre in Warsaw and is studying Yiddish at the Yung Yiddish Center in Tel Aviv. Olga has been also studying traditional singing techniques of Slavic music (such as Ukrainian \u201cwhite voice\u201d).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2013 with a group of musicians she initiated the project \u201cJewish Polesye\u201d which resulted in her debut album. Olga was inspired by the eclectic set of musical material from the repertoire of the 1930\u2019s era Jewish folk singer, Mariam Nirenberg. Nirenberg comes from Polesye, which used to be a borderland of cultures and languages, one of the wildest regions in Europe. The project evokes the lost world of the multicultural Polesye, where Yiddish interwind with Ukrainian and Polish. Its premiere took place at Lincoln Center in New York. It was successfully presented at various festivals of Jewish music and culture all around the world (USA, Canada, Israel, Poland).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Olga then turned to urban music. \u201cLi-La-Lo\u201d is the name of the second album and at the same time a musical cabaret, set up in Tel Aviv in 1944 by a pianist and composer Moshe Wilenski and poet Natan Alterman who emigrated to Palestine from Warsaw. Based on works of pre-war Warsaw cabarets, Li-La-Lo achieved great success. Olga with her musicians began performing tango and other songs which were popular in Warsaw and Jerusalem in the 1940s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\u201cYiddish Tango\u201d<\/strong>&nbsp;is the latest project by Olga Avigail Mieleszczuk. In 2017 the artist invited leading Polish tango musicians \u2013 Tango Attack \u2013 to create new arrangements of the pre-war Warsaw tangos. The vast majority of songs were composed by Polish Jews and its uniqueness came from the combination of Slavic and Jewish elements mixed with Argentinian musical influences. Tango hits were written in Polish and Yiddish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cYiddish Tango\u201d was performed in prestigious venues in Israel to Poland. Olga\u2019s concerts often feature special guest singers and musicians, such as legendary singer Slawa Przybylska, famous singer from Israel Alexander Fisz, and leading Israeli musicians including clarinet player Ittai Binnun and acclaimed jazz pianist from Toronto Ron Davis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Tango Attack<\/strong>&nbsp;is the modern tango band draws the inspiration from both the world\u2019s traditional and avant-garde Argentine tango. The band skillfully explores and adopts all musical trends associated with tango. Their repertoire includes classical tango in new arrangements, tango covers of popular songs and original composition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The group, formed in 2015, performs regularly with orchestras from all over Poland, including AUKSO Chamber Orchestra of the City of Tychy, Elblag Chamber Orchestra, NFM Orchestra in Wroclaw, Chamber Orchestra in Nowy Sacz, Sinfonietta Cracovia and Silesian Chamber Orchestra, performing symphonic and chamber concerts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Grzegorz Bozewicz<\/strong>: bandoneon and accordion<br><strong>Piotr Malicki<\/strong>: acoustic and electric guitars<br><strong>Hadrian Filip Tabecki<\/strong>: piano and music arrangements<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Hadrian Tabecki: Piano<\/strong><br>Hadrian is a composer, arranger, and pianist from Warsaw.

The concert at Kennedy Center is presented in partnership with the Embassy of the Republic of Poland in DC.\\nThe multilingual repertoire of this project includes songs in Polish, Yiddish, and Hebrew, reflecting the distinct international expressions of interwar Warsaw. As the tango craze swept through Europe, Warsaw became the eastern European capital of tango and bore witness to the birth of the dance form\u2019s most eclectic permutation, combining Slavic and Jewish elements with Argentinian musical influences. \\nIt was upon her discovery of one such song, Bialostocki\u2019s \u201cRebecca,\u201d that Olga first fell in love with Yiddish tango, fascinated by how the music reflects the complexity of Polish-Jewish coexistence. Raised a devout Catholic, Olga was inspired to dive deeper into Jewish culture after a life-changing interfaith visit to Auschwitz. After the visit, she began to study Yiddish and made it her mission to bring Yiddish back to the Jewish people. Today, Olga practices Orthodox Judaism and resides in Israel.\\nOlga\u2019s repertoire includes a wide variety of songs from the 1920s, 30s and 40s, some of which were popular tunes in their time, and others that had been forgotten and only recently revived by Olga and her band for a contemporary audience. Olga shares the unique history of each of the melodies with her audience, weaving together compelling stories of Yiddish stars from the Old World. A list of songs can be found at this link, and descriptions with lyrics are available by request.\\nLast year Olga presented Yiddish Tango from Warsaw at Toronto\u2019s Ashkenaz Festival and presented concerts and workshops at the internationally acclaimed klezmer gathering KlezKanada. Olga\u2019s concerts often feature special guest singers and musicians such as legendary singer Slawa Przybylska, acclaimed jazz pianist from Toronto Ron Davis, and leading Israeli performers. In 2013, Olga toured North America with a project Polesye \u2013 Jewish Folksongs from Shtetl, project inspired by the repertoire of Miriam Nirenberg, with concerts at Atrium at Lincoln Center, Chutzpah!

Olga is educated in classical music and graduated with a master\u2019s degree in Cultural Anthropology (Warsaw University). \\nBorn in Warsaw, she divides her time between her hometown and Jerusalem, where she currently resides. She initiates Polish-Israeli music projects and collaborates with organizations promoting Jewish culture in those two countries. \\nSince the very beginning of her creative work, she has been focusing on Jewish music of Ashkenazi roots, especially from borderlands of Poland (Galitzia, Polesye). She has studied Chassidic music, folk Yiddish songs, multilingual Jewish songs, participated in a two-year seminar for Yiddish songs at the Yiddish Theatre in Warsaw and is studying Yiddish at the Yung Yiddish Center in Tel Aviv. Olga has been also studying traditional singing techniques of Slavic music (such as Ukrainian \u201cwhite voice\u201d). \\nIn 2013 with a group of musicians she initiated the project \u201cJewish Polesye\u201d which resulted in her debut album. Olga was inspired by the eclectic set of musical material from the repertoire of the 1930\u2019s era Jewish folk singer, Mariam Nirenberg. Nirenberg comes from Polesye, which used to be a borderland of cultures and languages, one of the wildest regions in Europe. The project evokes the lost world of the multicultural Polesye, where Yiddish interwind with Ukrainian and Polish. Its premiere took place at Lincoln Center in New York. It was successfully presented at various festivals of Jewish music and culture all around the world (USA, Canada, Israel, Poland).\\nOlga then turned to urban music. \u201cLi-La-Lo\u201d is the name of the second album and at the same time a musical cabaret, set up in Tel Aviv in 1944 by a pianist and composer Moshe Wilenski and poet Natan Alterman who emigrated to Palestine from Warsaw. Based on works of pre-war Warsaw cabarets, Li-La-Lo achieved great success. Olga with her musicians began performing tango and other songs which were popular in Warsaw and Jerusalem in the 1940s.\\n\u201cYiddish Tango\u201d is the latest project by Olga Avigail Mieleszczuk. In 2017 the artist invited leading Polish tango musicians \u2013 Tango Attack \u2013 to create new arrangements of the pre-war Warsaw tangos. The vast majority of songs were composed by Polish Jews and its uniqueness came from the combination of Slavic and Jewish elements mixed with Argentinian musical influences. Tango hits were written in Polish and Yiddish.\\n\u201cYiddish Tango\u201d was performed in prestigious venues in Israel to Poland. Olga\u2019s concerts often feature special guest singers and musicians, such as legendary singer Slawa Przybylska, famous singer from Israel Alexander Fisz, and leading Israeli musicians including clarinet player Ittai Binnun and acclaimed jazz pianist from Toronto Ron Davis.\\nTango Attack is the modern tango band draws the inspiration from both the world\u2019s traditional and avant-garde Argentine tango. The band skillfully explores and adopts all musical trends associated with tango. Their repertoire includes classical tango in new arrangements, tango covers of popular songs and original composition.\\nThe group, formed in 2015, performs regularly with orchestras from all over Poland, including AUKSO Chamber Orchestra of the City of Tychy, Elblag Chamber Orchestra, NFM Orchestra in Wroclaw, Chamber Orchestra in Nowy Sacz, Sinfonietta Cracovia and Silesian Chamber Orchestra, performing symphonic and chamber concerts.\\nGrzegorz Bozewicz: bandoneon and accordionPiotr Malicki: acoustic and electric guitarsHadrian Filip Tabecki: piano and music arrangements\\nHadrian Tabecki: PianoHadrian is a composer, arranger, and pianist from Warsaw.

The tango in Yiddish is for me the perfect match.\u201d - MARK BURMAN, BBC\n\u201cOlga Avigail Mieleszczuk\u2019s life\u2019s work is reviving the musical genre of Yiddish tango \u2014 two words rarely uttered in the same breath.\u201d - LARRY LUXNER, JEWISH TELEGRAPHIC AGENCY\nPolish Cultural Institute brings back acclaimed Yiddish singer and scholar Olga Avigail Mieleszczuk to the United States with the program \u201cYiddish Tango from Warsaw,\u201d featuring new arrangements of popular tango songs composed by Polish Jews in the 1930s. \nThe tour is presented by Polish Cultural Institute New York in partnership with JCC Manhattan, JCC Staten Island and Kennedy Center in Washington, DC . The concert at Kennedy Center is presented in partnership with the Embassy of the Republic of Poland in DC.\nThe multilingual repertoire of this project includes songs in Polish, Yiddish, and Hebrew, reflecting the distinct international expressions of interwar Warsaw. As the tango craze swept through Europe, Warsaw became the eastern European capital of tango and bore witness to the birth of the dance form\u2019s most eclectic permutation, combining Slavic and Jewish elements with Argentinian musical influences. \nIt was upon her discovery of one such song, Bialostocki\u2019s \u201cRebecca,\u201d that Olga first fell in love with Yiddish tango, fascinated by how the music reflects the complexity of Polish-Jewish coexistence. Raised a devout Catholic, Olga was inspired to dive deeper into Jewish culture after a life-changing interfaith visit to Auschwitz. After the visit, she began to study Yiddish and made it her mission to bring Yiddish back to the Jewish people. Today, Olga practices Orthodox Judaism and resides in Israel.\nOlga\u2019s repertoire includes a wide variety of songs from the 1920s, 30s and 40s, some of which were popular tunes in their time, and others that had been forgotten and only recently revived by Olga and her band for a contemporary audience. Olga shares the unique history of each of the melodies with her audience, weaving together compelling stories of Yiddish stars from the Old World. A list of songs can be found at this link, and descriptions with lyrics are available by request.\nLast year Olga presented Yiddish Tango from Warsaw at Toronto\u2019s Ashkenaz Festival and presented concerts and workshops at the internationally acclaimed klezmer gathering KlezKanada. Olga\u2019s concerts often feature special guest singers and musicians such as legendary singer Slawa Przybylska, acclaimed jazz pianist from Toronto Ron Davis, and leading Israeli performers. In 2013, Olga toured North America with a project Polesye \u2013 Jewish Folksongs from Shtetl, project inspired by the repertoire of Miriam Nirenberg, with concerts at Atrium at Lincoln Center, Chutzpah! Festival, Jewish Music Festival in Berkeley and JCC in Berkeley.\nWHAT: \u201cYiddish Tango from Warsaw\u201d with Olga Avigail Mieleszczuk and Tango Attack WHERE: JCC of Staten Island, 1466 Manor Road, Staten Island, NY 10314WHEN: Sunday, September 22, 2019, 3PM ADMISSION: $18\nWHAT: \u201cYiddish Tango from Warsaw\u201d with Olga Avigail Mieleszczuk and Tango AttackWHERE: The Kennedy Center, Millennium Stage, 2700 F St NW, Washington, DC 20566WHEN: Tuesday, September 24, 2019, 6PM (seating opens at 5:30)ADMISSION: FREE (parking not provided)\nWHAT: \u201cYiddish Tango from Warsaw\u201d with Olga Avigail Mieleszczuk and Tango Attack, with special guest Michael WinogradWHERE: The Marlene Meyerson JCC Manhattan, Goldman-Sonnenfeldt Auditorium, 334 Amsterdam Ave, New York, NY 10023WHEN: Wednesday, September 25, 2019, 7:30PM ADMISSION: $20 members; $25 general admission \nDISCOGRAPHY\nOlga Avigail2017 \u2013 \u201cYiddish Tango Live in Jerusalem\u201d2015 \u2013 \u201cLi-La-Lo\u201d2013 \u2013 \u201cJewish Songs from Polesye\u201c \nTango Attack2018 \u2013 \u201cTango Attack Live in Cieszyn\u201d2017 \u2013 \u201cYiddish Tango Live in Jerusalem\u201d\nOlga Avigail is a singer, accordion player and researcher of Eastern European musical folklore. Olga is educated in classical music and graduated with a master\u2019s degree in Cultural Anthropology (Warsaw University). \nBorn in Warsaw, she divides her time between her hometown and Jerusalem, where she currently resides. She initiates Polish-Israeli music projects and collaborates with organizations promoting Jewish culture in those two countries. \nSince the very beginning of her creative work, she has been focusing on Jewish music of Ashkenazi roots, especially from borderlands of Poland (Galitzia, Polesye). She has studied Chassidic music, folk Yiddish songs, multilingual Jewish songs, participated in a two-year seminar for Yiddish songs at the Yiddish Theatre in Warsaw and is studying Yiddish at the Yung Yiddish Center in Tel Aviv. Olga has been also studying traditional singing techniques of Slavic music (such as Ukrainian \u201cwhite voice\u201d). \nIn 2013 with a group of musicians she initiated the project \u201cJewish Polesye\u201d which resulted in her debut album. Olga was inspired by the eclectic set of musical material from the repertoire of the 1930\u2019s era Jewish folk singer, Mariam Nirenberg. Nirenberg comes from Polesye, which used to be a borderland of cultures and languages, one of the wildest regions in Europe. The project evokes the lost world of the multicultural Polesye, where Yiddish interwind with Ukrainian and Polish. Its premiere took place at Lincoln Center in New York. It was successfully presented at various festivals of Jewish music and culture all around the world (USA, Canada, Israel, Poland).\nOlga then turned to urban music. \u201cLi-La-Lo\u201d is the name of the second album and at the same time a musical cabaret, set up in Tel Aviv in 1944 by a pianist and composer Moshe Wilenski and poet Natan Alterman who emigrated to Palestine from Warsaw. Based on works of pre-war Warsaw cabarets, Li-La-Lo achieved great success. Olga with her musicians began performing tango and other songs which were popular in Warsaw and Jerusalem in the 1940s.\n\u201cYiddish Tango\u201d is the latest project by Olga Avigail Mieleszczuk. In 2017 the artist invited leading Polish tango musicians \u2013 Tango Attack \u2013 to create new arrangements of the pre-war Warsaw tangos. The vast majority of songs were composed by Polish Jews and its uniqueness came from the combination of Slavic and Jewish elements mixed with Argentinian musical influences. Tango hits were written in Polish and Yiddish.\n\u201cYiddish Tango\u201d was performed in prestigious venues in Israel to Poland. Olga\u2019s concerts often feature special guest singers and musicians, such as legendary singer Slawa Przybylska, famous singer from Israel Alexander Fisz, and leading Israeli musicians including clarinet player Ittai Binnun and acclaimed jazz pianist from Toronto Ron Davis.\nTango Attack is the modern tango band draws the inspiration from both the world\u2019s traditional and avant-garde Argentine tango. The band skillfully explores and adopts all musical trends associated with tango. Their repertoire includes classical tango in new arrangements, tango covers of popular songs and original composition.\nThe group, formed in 2015, performs regularly with orchestras from all over Poland, including AUKSO Chamber Orchestra of the City of Tychy, Elblag Chamber Orchestra, NFM Orchestra in Wroclaw, Chamber Orchestra in Nowy Sacz, Sinfonietta Cracovia and Silesian Chamber Orchestra, performing symphonic and chamber concerts.\nGrzegorz Bozewicz: bandoneon and accordionPiotr Malicki: acoustic and electric guitarsHadrian Filip Tabecki: piano and music arrangements\nHadrian Tabecki: PianoHadrian is a composer, arranger, and pianist from Warsaw.
