Michael Winograd & The Honorable Mentshn (USA)
with special guest Socalled (Canada)
November 4, 2023 at 8pm
Norman & Annette Rothstein Theatre

The Honorable Mentshn - whose name plays on the plural form of the Yiddish “mentsh,” meaning a person of integrity - is the brainchild of Brooklyn clarinet virtuoso Michael Winograd. One of today’s premier klezmer clarinetists, Winograd and band dazzle klezmer audiences worldwide. Featuring tunes that glide between the past and the present, the Mentshn play with virtuosic fervor, skipping from the 1950s Borsht Belt to 2020s nightclubs and back again.

The band will be joined by Canadian Jewish hip-hop superstar Josh “Socalled” Dolgin, last seen at Chutzpah! in 2021 with his captivating of Yiddish music, Di Frosh.

The Chutzpah! Festival's live music programming is supported by AmplifyBC's Live Music Presentation Fund.

The Honorable Mentshn's performances are sponsored by Bob Markin.
