EXPERIENCE THE RICH TAPESTRY OF JEWISH MUSIC IN THE OPEN AIR
as we bring together artists, traditions, and community right here in the heart of Durham. From participatory folk music to lively klezmer, rock favorites, and powerful stories carried through song, each event offers a fresh take on Jewish sound, soul, and simcha (joy).
Join us for these FREE outdoor concerts at the Preminger Family Amphitheater, where performances blend old and new, familiar and unexpected — and where music becomes a way to connect, celebrate, reflect, and belong.
The Good Vibrations concert series celebrates the depth and diversity of Jewish musical expression, welcoming all who are curious, joyful, and ready to share in something meaningful. Come early, bring a friend, and be part of the music.
Enjoy four unique evenings of Jewish music this summer at the Preminger Family Amphitheater this summer!
BILLY JONAS:
“BRIDGING
DIVIDES”
WEDNESDAY June 10, 7pm
Thoughtful, uplifting, and unlike anything else!
Part concert, part community experience, Billy Jonas transforms the stage into a space of rhythm, participation, and shared joy. Through inventive percussion, storytelling, and heartfelt songs, audiences become part of the music itself.
RABBI SOLOMON & FRIENDS:
“AN EVENING OF KLEZMER & JEWISH MUSIC”
WEDNESDAY JUNE 24, 7PM
An inspiring night of music for the whole community.
Celebrate the start of summer with a lively night of klezmer, nigunim (wordless melodies), and Jewish folk music old and new.
Featuring local musicians from Chapel Hill and Durham, the evening will be filled with hora-worthy tunes, Yiddish classics, and joyful melodies that invite everyone to tap, clap, sing, and connect.
COMING LATER THIS SUMMER:
The Backroads
WEDNESDAY July 15, 7pm
Rock out to some chosen tunes!
A night of killer covers from rock's greatest Jewish artists.
Bram’s Violin
TUESDAY AUGUST 18
The Bram’s Violin shares the remarkable true story of a Holocaust-era violin returned to its family more than 75 years later — a moving evening of memory, music, and resilience.
