Lecture/concert with Salamander Duo about Jewish history and culture in Tibro library [Tibro]

January 22 at 18:00 p.m. - 19:00

Welcome to a combined talk and concert themed on Jewish history and culture, with beautiful and emotional live music performed by the Salamander Duo!

The lecture follows the history of the Jews from their earliest origins in the eastern Mediterranean to today and is about the Jews' contact with the majority populations in the areas where they lived, their rich contribution to culture and science and the growth and development of anti-Semitism. The focus is on the history of the Ashkenazi and Sephardic Jews, but other lesser-known Jewish populations with roots in antiquity will also be mentioned, such as the Persian, Indian, Ethiopian and Chinese Jews.

The lecture has been written and given by Salamander Duo's violinist Jonas Liljeström, who is a music ethnologist trained at the University of Gothenburg and himself has a partial Jewish background.
