Jill Sobule
Music from Yentl, Klezmer-meets-pop Collab

Jill Sobule (R.I.P.) presented her original music for a re-considered YENTL, with Isle of Klezbos playing full-band arrangements for this show at Lincoln Center's David Rubenstein Atrium (2015) and Joe's Pub at the Public Theater (2014). In tribute to Jill and this special project based on the trans-figuration story by Isaac Bashevis Singer, Isle of Klezbos will be performing special MUSIC FROM YENTL selections, honoring her memory with this beautiful lesser-known repertoire from our program together.
Jill was also our special guest at El Sol Brillante Garden for our Roots & Fruits celebration concert in September 2015, including a reprise of her distinctly non-Babs YENTL favorites with Klezbos as house band spanning genres from blues ballads to rambunctious pop-rock and klezmer dance tunes.
We are preparing two songs from the MUSIC FROM YENTL project which we played with Jill, to be shared at our upcoming shows at Joes Pub (6/24/2025) and El Sol Brillante Garden (7/13/2025) — both venues where we treasure our memories of sharing the stage with Jill.
