Husband and wife, Jim and Barbara, pay a return visit to present a Thanksgiving-themed performance. Enjoy a variety of spirited and expressive songs in Yiddish, English, Hebrew and Ladino, as well as lively Klezmer music. This multi-talented, extraordinary duo is guaranteed to bring laughter to your lips, a tear to your eye, and joy to your heart. 

Jim Rebhan has been a mainstay of the San Francisco Bay Area Klezmer scene. He is the son of Jewish immigrants who left Europe in the late 1930’s, and who met in English language school, and he grew up listening to Yiddish song at home. 

Barbara Hollinger is a trained soprano and has been the vocalist with the Ellis Island Old World Folk Band for over a decade.
