As part of a citywide festival, “Migrations: The Making of America,” Carnegie Hall and 70 other institutions are exploring America in a series of 100 events taking place from March 9 through April 15 that show through music, dance, exhibitions, talks and films how America came to be.          The Carnegie Hall concerts highlight the crossings from Scotland and Ireland in the 18th and 19th centuries; the immigration of Jews from Russia and Eastern Europe between 1881 and 1924; and African Americans being pushed north from 1917 to the 1970s. Musical genres, such as bluegrass, klezmer, blues and jazz will help tell the stories.

The Jewish experience will be featured in a concert titled “From Shtetl to Stage: A Celebration of Yiddish Music and Culture” on Monday, April 15, at 8 p.m.
