October 9 is the day on which Romania commemorates the victims of the Holocaust and the role played by the Romanian state in this phenomenon. Mazel Tov, the music band of the Jewish Community of Cluj, will be with us to remember this tragic episode together, but also to celebrate life and peace together. The band’s repertoire includes klezmer music with songs in Yiddish, Ladino and Hebrew.

The event is part of the Tranzit House - // Egy fedél alatt // Sub același acoperiș // Under the same roof project. The aim of the project is to revitalize the inter-community dialogue whose symbolic and material support is the building of the former synagogue on the banks of the Someș river. The project aims to reaffirm the importance and physical necessity of this space. From 2 to 13 October, we are creating a program that combines artistic processes with research and community work in an act of celebration and reinforcement of the intersection between the different communities to which Tranzit House has provided a common roof. October is also our 27th anniversary month and on this occasion we will celebrate with Tranzit Days. The resilience of this space is due to the many people who have contributed to it with their work, ideas, care and resources over the years. Tranzit Days aims to bring as many of them as possible “under the same roof”.
