JAZZ SOLO
-Concert-
May 3, 2026 | 8:00 p.m.
Jordan White
Australian electric guitarist Jordan White lived and worked in Weimar for many years, so the city and the OMA feel like a “home away from home” to him. In this solo concert, he explores new ways of processing the electric guitar electroacoustically in an intimate, laboratory-like setting. Improvisation and experimentation take center stage here, but White always brings his deep understanding of the jazz tradition as well as his broad experience with other traditions to his solo concerts, so that everything usually sounds at least somewhat musical.

Goleslider is a new project that combines newly-composed Yiddish songs with klezmer improvisation and live electronics.
Artistic directors Francesca Ter-Berg (cello/voice/electronics), a pioneer of combining experimental electroacoustic music with klezmer, and Daniel Kahn (multi-instrumentalist/voice), a leading Yiddish songwriter of the 21st century, explore the concept of goles, a Yiddish word that means both exile and diaspora.
The program explores many forms of “exile,” from migration and historical exclusion to cultural and linguistic ruptures. Through new songs that set existing and newly-written Yiddish poetry, Goleslider reconsiders the broad concept of goles in the context of rising nationalism.
Lineup:
Daniel Kahn (voice, accordion, piano, guitar)
Francesca Ter-Berg (cello, live electronics, voice)
Anna Lowenstein (violin)
Malik Schilling (percussion)
Pieter Sint Nicolaas (trumpet, flugelhorn)
Rosamond van Wingerden (voice)
