This book was released on 2005-07-18 with total page 1956 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume includes multiple renditions of every prayer, thus illustrating the broad diversity within traditional intonation of each prayer mode. In accordance with the traditional role assigned to the prayer leader of each service, renditions are presented at levels appropriate to the lay cantor (baal t'filo) as well the professional cantor (chazz'n). Liturgical texts that were traditionally intoned by cantor and choir, or by choir alone, are also included. Annotative commentary explains the liturgical role and character of each service and analyzes the musical content of each prayer mode within it. It also explains the techniques employed in applying the prayer mode to specific liturgical texts and how the applications reflect the literal as well as spiritual content of the texts. This set comprises four books covering the fourteen weekday liturgical occasions, with annotated commentary.

Book Synopsis A Voice Still Heard by : Eric Werner
Download or read book A Voice Still Heard written by Eric Werner and published by Penn State University Press. This book was released on 1976 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How many worshipers or listeners have been moved by the venerable strains of the Synagogue! These melodies, rich in memories, were often the subjects of heated controversies regarding their age, authenticity, provenance, and especially their resemblance to German or Polish popular songs. Now for the first time the history of these songs, their liturgical, musical, social, and political background has been thoroughly examined and comprehensively described--by the leading authority in the field of Jewish and Early Christian music. The folk songs of Germany, Poland, France, and Italy have left their vestiges in the musical tradition of the Ashkenazic (German-Austrian-Polish- Russian) Synagogue. A critical history and morphology of that tradition, this book presents new facts, corrects old errors, and contains more than two hundred musical examples. Beginning a millennium ago with prototypes of the synagogue chant, Dr. Werner shows the differences between original folk song and its stylization, between Christian and Jewish esthetics of religious music. The interaction between secular romantic music and synagogal music is traced. Other major topics are the relations among Spanish, Italian, and German Jews; the divergence of Eastern and Western European styles; and regional influences that often outweighed liturgical ones.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This two-volume set presents a historical overview of the rise and decline of the liturgical-musical tradition of the Eastern European synagogue, and a study of its complex component elements through verbal description, musical illustration and analysis. Volume I discusses the heritage from the Middle East and from West Central Europe, the evolution of the musical tradition of the Eastern European synagogue, reciprocal influences between East and West, Chassidic influence, the music at its zenith, and decline in the 20th century. The analyses that require extensive knowledge on the part of the reader are flagged so non-experts can bypass them. Volume II contains musical examples.

Download or read book Klezmer written by Walter Zev Feldman and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016-10-03 with total page 441 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Klezmer: Music, History, and Memory is the first comprehensive study of the musical structure and social history of klezmer music, the music of the Jewish musicians' guild of Eastern Europe. Emerging in 16th century Prague, the klezmer became a central cultural feature of the largest transnational Jewish community of modern times - the Ashkenazim of Eastern Europe. Much of the musical and choreographic history of the Ashkenazim is embedded in the klezmer repertoire, which functioned as a kind of non-verbal communal memory. The complex of speech, dance, and musical gesture is deeply rooted in Jewish expressive culture, and reached its highest development in Eastern Europe. Klezmer: Music, History, and Memory reveals the artistic transformations of the liturgy of the Ashkenazic synagogue in klezmer wedding melodies, and presents the most extended study available in any language of the relationship of Jewish dance to the rich and varied klezmer music of Eastern Europe. Author Walter Zev Feldman expertly examines the major written sources--principally in Russian, Yiddish, Hebrew, and Romanian--from the 16th to the 20th centuries. He draws upon the foundational notated collections of the late Tsarist and early Soviet periods, as well as rare cantorial and klezmer manuscripts from the late 18th to the early 20th centuries. He has conducted interviews with authoritative European-born klezmorim over a period of more than thirty years, in America, Europe, and Israel. Thus, his analysis reveals both the musical and cultural systems underlying the klezmer music of Eastern Europe.
Book Synopsis Central European Folk Music by : Philip V. Bohlman
Download or read book Central European Folk Music written by Philip V. Bohlman and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-10-28 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first annotated bibliography, in German or English, to gather the rich sources for German-language folk-music scholarship. It presents a comprehensive view of both historical and contemporary trends in a field embracing folkloristics and ethnomusicology, as well as philological and cultural studies. Beginning with early theories of folk song-formulated by Herder, Goethe, the Brothers Grimm, and others-the book examines the most important collections of the 19th-century folk-song movement, and surveys the 20th-century institutions and publications that have made folk-music scholarship essential to an understanding of German-speaking Europe. The book represents the enormous diversity of folk music. Ideas of genre and classification contrast with the ways in which minority and ethnic groups have contributed to the complex constructs of 19th- and 20th-century nationalism. The intellectual history in this book often takes the form of a clash between institutions and the forceful personalities of scholars who theorized that folk music was the product of individuals or the linguistic core of nations. Entries that illustrate the ways in which constructs of folk music have contributed to the politics of culture (e.g., in Nazi Germany or in the workers' culture of the former German Democratic Republic) also constitute the expansive musical landscape covered by this book The author includes diverse disciplinary perspectives, not just those of folklorists, but also concepts from ethnomusicology, historical musicology, and religious and cultural studies. In addition to traditional studies of the canons of German folk music (e.g., ballads and singing-society repertories), Bohlman includes studies of religious and ethnic minorities, and of German folk music in nations and regions outside Central Europe. The comprehensive nature of this book, not only makes available a rich history of scholarship, but also contextualizes Central European folk music as a vital and critical discipline for the interpretation of a changing Europe. Includes index.
