Summer Concerts: The Moody Jews In-Person
Join us for some music on the terrace featuring the Moody Jews.
In the event of bad weather or air quality, the concert will be held in the local history area on the 3rd floor.
The Moody Jews of Boise play klezmer (Eastern European), Jewish-American jazz, Sephardic (Middle Eastern and Spanish) and Israeli tunes. Combining the versatile jazz violin talent of Oliver Thompson, the energetic and improvisational piano virtuoso skills of Danny Beal, Grant Green’s flexible, intuitive, and multicultural-influenced percussion, and Elana Salzman’s soaring vocals infused with a rich cultural history, the band strives to pay homage to the traditional while creating something new through a combination of adept improvisation and carefully crafted arrangements.
Over the past several years, the Moody Jews of Boise have brought their distinctive sound to festivals and venues in the Treasure Valley area and beyond. From music festivals such as Treefort and Northwest Folklife, to small-town Oktoberfest celebrations, to communities in Las Vegas, to a collaboration with the Serenata Orchestra featuring full orchestral arrangements of their music, they are making their mark on the region, introducing audiences to the richness of klezmer while simultaneously showing it in a brand new light.
