JMI (Jewish Music Institute)

We were lucky enough to get a grant from the JMI to promote Klezmer music in and around Manchester UK. This ran through the academic year in 2002-2003. Thanks to the JMI most of the events in 2002-3003 were free - thanks JMI!

What is the Jewish Music Institute?

The Jewish Music Institute is dedicated to the celebration, preservation and development of the living heritage of Jewish music for the benefit of all.

The Jewish Music Institute (JMI) is an independent arts organisation (non-religious), established in March 2000 at the School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London, after 18 years of successful operation under the name of the Jewish Music Heritage Trust. JMI is a national focus bringing Jewish music to the mainstream British cultural arena for people of all ages, backgrounds and cultures.

JMI carries out programmes in three areas: education, performance and information.

There's lots more on their website www.jmi.org.uk
