    this version failed to gain popularity. The lyrics were translated again in the mid-1950s by Arthur Kevess and Teddi Schwartz, and the song became well known with their text. It became especially popular after being recorded by Joan Baez in 1960, Donovan in 1965 and Patty Duke in 1968. Dana Dana has been translated into and recorded in many other languages including German, French, Japanese, Hebrew, and Russian. Teddy Bears’ Picnic “Teddy Bears' Picnic” is a song consisting of a melody composed by John Walter Bratton in 1907 and lyrics added by Irish songwriter Jimmy Kennedy in 1932. It remains popular as a children’s song, having been recorded by numerous artists over the decades. An early recording (probably the first) was made by the Black Diamond Band for Zonophone records in 1908, while the first vocal version was recorded in 1932 by Henry Hall and His Orchestra with Val Rosing singing Kennedy's lyrics. The Hall rendition was featured in the Dennis Potter drama ‘The Singing Detective’. Up until the early 1960s, the same recording was used for more than 30 years by BBC audio engineers to test and calibrate audio equipment. Its especially good recording quality and the large tonal range of the music made it ideal for checking the frequency response of audio equipment. BBC Engineering even had special vinyl pressings made to reduce any surface noise. Today's arrangement for 4 bassoons nicely captures the sense of fun and perky exuberance of the piece and, I'm sure, will transport many of us back to our childhood.

    Jewish Popular Music Joel E. Rubin Most scholars agree that there is no such thing as “Jewish music”, but rather there are numerous Jewish musical traditions that have developed in a diasporic setting over many centuries and a wide geographic range. This article will focus predominantly on music that has been created outside of Israel and is perceived to be Jewish by its creators and/or consumers, whether or not they are Jews. The question as to whether music created in the modern nation-state of Israel should be considered Israeli or Jewish, or both, is complex and will only be briefly discussed. Many popular Jewish performers sing in both Jewish and non-Jewish languages, dialects and styles, and service a multilingual and multi-religious public. Thus the line between “Jewish” and “mainstream” popular music can be fine. Genres of Jewish popular music have emerged that are predominantly secular as well as those that are religious, and they include music created by Ashkenazim (originally Central and East European Jews), Sephardim (originally Jews from the Iberian Peninsula), Mizrahim (originally Jewish from the Arabic-speaking lands) and other, smaller groups (e.g. Jews of Central Asia, Caucasus, India). Jewish musical traditions are often performed in settings not normally associated with popular music – the synagogue, and at weddings and family and holiday gatherings – yet aspects of popular musical culture are present in many of these traditions. Because of Jewish migration patterns in the wake of the upheavals of the twentieth century, it is common to find large communities living in a double diaspora, such as Bukharian Jews in Queens, New York or Syrian Jews in Brooklyn, New York.

  • Summer Stock Finale—Now with More Uptown
    Newsroom - Milken Archive of Jewish Music - Summer Stock Finale—Now with More Uptown The Archive Newsroom About Us Resources Milken Archive > Newsroom > Summer Stock Finale—Now with More Uptown July 16, 2014 Summer Stock Finale—Now with More Uptown While Second Avenue was a tenement haven for Jewish immigrants and the Catskills replaced the dachas of the old world, for many artists of Yiddish theater it was still the “uptown” allure of Broadway and Carnegie Hall that were the pinnacle of their American dream. In our “finale” installment of the Summer Stock streaming series, we spotlight Joseph Rumshinsky, the last of the Big Four composers. While the other three were content to entertain their core audience and occasionally cross over to the “uptown” world, Rumshinsky wanted to take all of Yiddish theater along. Rumshinsky wasn’t alone in his quest. In fact, he was so closely associated with Molly Picon and her husband Jacob Kalich, that they were known as The Three Musketeers of the East Side. Whether Rumshinsky, his colleagues and successors brought Second Avenue to the mainstream or the mainstream down to Second Avenue might be fodder for dissertations, but their lasting impact on theater, music and film is undeniable. Join us for one last session in the Catskills to learn more about Rumshinsky, stream some of his beautiful, ambitious songs (one of which Picon wrote the lyrics for) and watch Cantor Benzion Miller sing Rumshinsky and Tomashefsky’s version of Sh’ma Yisro’el. And if you missed any of the installments on Abraham Ellstein, Sholom Secunda, or Alexander Olshanetsky, you’ll find links for those, too.

  • Cover Art Yiddish Theatre V3 a MESSAGE from the MILKEN ARCHIVE FOUNDER
    Cover Art Yiddish Theatre V3 A MESSAGE FROM THE MILKEN ARCHIVE FOUNDER Dispersed over the centuries to all corners of the earth, the Jewish people absorbed elements of its host cultures while, miraculously, maintaining its own. As many Jews reconnected in America, escaping persecution and seeking to take part in a visionary democratic society, their experiences found voice in their music. The sacred and secular body of work that has developed over the three centuries since Jews first arrived on these shores provides a powerful means of expressing the multilayered saga of American Jewry. While much of this music had become a vital force in American and world culture, even more music of specifically Jewish content had been created, perhaps performed, and then lost to current and future generations. Believing that there was a unique opportunity to rediscover, preserve and transmit the collective memory contained within this music, I founded the Milken Archive of American Jewish Music in 1990. The passionate collaboration of many distinguished artists, ensembles and recording producers over the past fourteen years has created a vast repository of musical resources to educate, entertain and inspire people of all faiths and cultures. The Milken Archive of American Jewish Music is a living project; one that we hope will cultivate and nourish musicians and enthusiasts of this richly varied musical repertoire. Lowell Milken A MESSAGE FROM THE ARTISTIC DIRECTOR The quality, quantity, and amazing diversity of sacred as well as secular music written for or inspired by Jewish life in America is one of the least acknowledged achievements of modern Western culture.

  • Chasing Yiddishkayt: a Concerto in the Context of Klezmer Music
    CHASING YIDDISHKAYT: A CONCERTO IN THE CONTEXT OF KLEZMER MUSIC A Monograph Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Musical Arts By Julia Alford-Fowler May, 2013 Committee Members: Dr. Matthew Greenbaum, Department of Music Studies, Advisor Dr. Rollo Dilworth, Department of Education Dr. Cynthia Folio, Department of Music Studies Dr. Maurice Wright, Department of Music Studies Dr. Steven Zohn, Department of Music Studies, Outside Reader © by Julia Alford-Fowler 2013 All Rights Reserved ii ABSTRACT Chasing Yiddishkayt: Music for Accordion, Klezmorim Concertino, Strings, and Percussion is a four-movement composition that combines the idioms of klezmer music with aspects of serialism. I aimed to infuse the piece with a sense of yiddishkayt: a recognizable, rooted Jewishness. In order to accomplish this goal, I based each movement on a different klezmer style. I used the improvisatory-style of the Romanian Jewish doina as the foundation for Movement 1. For Movements 2 through 4 I selected tunes from the 1927 Hoffman Manuscript–a fake-book assembled by Joseph Hoffman in Philadelphia for his son, Morris–as the starting point in my process, and also for the generation of pitch material. Each movement places the tunes in a different serialist context through the use of abstraction, manipulation and regeneration. The orchestration of the composition is designed as a modified a concerto structure that alternates between featuring the accordion and contrasting the klezmorim concertino (fiddle, clarinet, trumpet, trombone, tuba, and accordion) with the orchestra. Depending on the context, the percussion section functions as part of the concertino and the orchestra.
