  • The Secular Music of the Yemenite Jews As an Expression of Cultural Demarcation Between the Sexes
    JASO 27/2 (1996): 113-135 THE SECULAR MUSIC OF THE YEMENITE JEWS AS AN EXPRESSION OF CULTURAL DEMARCATION BETWEEN THE SEXES MARILYN HERMAN JEWISH men and women in Yemen are portrayed in the sociological and anthropo­ logical literature as having lived in separate conceptual and spatial worlds. As a result, two very separate bodies of song existed, one pertaining to men and the other to women. In this paper, I show how the culturally defined demarcation be­ tween the sexes is reflected and epitomized in the music of the Jews who lived in Yemen. i The key to this separation lies in the fact that women were banned from the synagogue altogether. This exclusion is not prescribed by Jewish law, and there is no precedent for it in the Bible or other Jewish literature or communities. The reason given for women being banned from the synagogue in Yemen was the fear that they might be menstruating. The condition of menstruation is, in Jewish law, This paper is based on my MA thesis (Herman 1985), which was written under the supervision and with the moral and academic support of Dr P. T. W. Baxter of Manchester University. My brother Geoffrey Herman willingly and painstakingly translated Hebrew articles into English for my benefit while I was writing this thesis. I. The period mainly referred to is the fifty years or so preceding 'Operation Magic Carpet', a series of airlifts between 1949 and 1950 in which the majority of Yemenite Jews were taken to Israel. 114 Marilyn Herman seen as ritually impure.

  • The Role of Hebrew Letters in Making the Divine Visible
    "VTSFDIUMJDIFO (SàOEFOTUFIU EJFTF"CCJMEVOH OJDIUJN0QFO "DDFTT[VS 7FSGàHVOH The Role of Hebrew Letters in Making the Divine Visible KATRIN KOGMAN-APPEL hen Jewish figural book art began to develop in central WEurope around the middle of the thirteenth century, the patrons and artists of Hebrew liturgical books easily opened up to the tastes, fashions, and conventions of Latin illu- minated manuscripts and other forms of Christian art. Jewish book designers dealt with the visual culture they encountered in the environment in which they lived with a complex process of transmis- sion, adaptation, and translation. Among the wealth of Christian visual themes, however, there was one that the Jews could not integrate into their religious culture: they were not prepared to create anthropomorphic representations of God. This stand does not imply that Jewish imagery never met the challenge involved in representing the Divine. Among the most lavish medieval Hebrew manu- scripts is a group of prayer books that contain the liturgical hymns that were commonly part of central European prayer rites. Many of these hymns address God by means of lavish golden initial words that refer to the Divine. These initials were integrated into the overall imagery of decorated initial panels, their frames, and entire page layouts in manifold ways to be analyzed in what follows. Jewish artists and patrons developed interesting strategies to cope with the need to avoid anthropomorphism and still to give way to visually powerful manifestations of the divine presence. Among the standard themes in medieval Ashkenazi illuminated Hebrew prayer books (mahzorim)1 we find images of Moses receiving the tablets of the Law on Mount Sinai (Exodus 31:18, 34), commemorated during the holiday of Shavuot, the Feast of Weeks (fig.

  • The Theme of Love in Yemenite Hebrew Literature*
    THE THEME OF LOVE IN YEMENITE HEBREW LITERATURE* By REUBEN AHRONI Ohio State University THE EROTIC IMPULSE is a vital and dynamic force in life, and the theme of love is ageless and universal. "A pretty girl, a cup of wine, a garden, the song of a bird, the murmur of a brook'' -proclaims Moshe lbn Ezra-' 'are the cure of the lover, the joy of the distressed ... the wealth of the poor, and the medicine of the sick. " 1 Thus Ibn Ezra advises: Cling to the breast of the beautiful by night And kiss the lips of the pretty by day.2 This prescription of Moshe lbn Ezra for a happy and joyful life is characteristic of many of the Medieval Spanish Hebrew poets. Despite their deep piety, these poets knew how to express in their writings the splendor of the fields and flowery meadows, and the enchantment of feminine beauty .3 Indeed, these writings offer us a glimpse into the hidden vistas of their lives: their joys and sorrows, their triumphs and frustrations. The greatness of poetry, says Mardell, is in its eroticism, for it is "most true then to life, which is largely erotic" (1976, p. 15). *All translations of Yemenite Hebrew poetry into English are my own. I would like to thank the Graduate School of the Ohio State University, the College of Humanities, and the Melton Center for Jewish Studies, for supporting my research on Yemenite Hebrew Literature.

  • Marc Shapiro: What Do Adon Olam and ס”ט
    Marc Shapiro: What Do Adon ?Mean ס”ט Olam and [Mean ? [1 ס”ט What Do Adon Olam and by ס”ט By Marc B. Shapiro 1. People often refer to me as a Modern Orthodox intellectual. There are actually quite a number of us out there. If you hear someone using words like “ontological,” “existential,” “mimetic,” and now, “tergiversation”[2] you can assume he in in our club. Also, another telltale sign is that when we give divrei Torah you will hear us refer to Philo, the Apocrypha, Pseudepigrapha (if we are confident that we can pronounce the word properly[3]), Shadal, or Cassutto.[4] Of course, we are careful to only say Midrash, and never Medrish, as the latter pronunciation is a sure sign of a Philistine. It is no secret that Modern Orthodox intellectuals like to look down on Artscroll, and to let others know about this. So we must find places where Artscroll makes mistakes. It is not enough to point to the vastly different historical conceptions between us and Artscroll; we need to find places where Artscroll simply got it wrong (for one such example see here). This will show that even if they are conquering the world, they shouldn’t think that they are so brilliant. I am not speaking about the Artscroll Talmud (which we use when no one is looking) or the Artscroll “History” series, which is not popular with the Modern Orthodox.[5] I am referring to the Artscroll siddur and chumash which have taken over the Orthodox world. (The Modern Orthodox intellectuals must have been so busy these last twenty years producing articles read by each other that it never occurred to them to produce their own siddur and chumash.)[6] But finding these errors is easier said than done.

  • Lullaby”: the Story of a Niggun1
    “Lullaby”: The Story of a Niggun1 MICHAEL BECKERMAN AND NAOMI TADMOR Introduction In the winter of 1943, a song was performed in the Terezín Ghetto. It was an art song with a Hebrew text, yet its melody had also featured as a folk song, a pop tune, and a wordless vocalization; later, it would become a religious hymn. This article seeks to uncover the story of this tune: how it emerged, how it acquired a text, how it got to Terezín, how it was treated there, and what meanings can be drawn from its manifestations. The piece in question is Gideon Klein’s “Lullaby.” Our inquiry started as we noted an anomaly, a disagreement between recordings. At a key point in the composition, we realized that two performers sing different pitches, which is not unusual in many song traditions, but is entirely atypical of a notated art song. Example 1a: Excerpt from Isabelle Ganz’s recording of Gideon Klein’s “Lullaby”2 Example 1b: Excerpt from Wolfgang Holzmair’s recording of Gideon Klein’s “Lullaby.”3 Listen at: http://dx.doi.org/10.3998/mp.9460447.0010.101 We wondered, how could this difference be explained? Was one version mistaken? If so, which one, and why did the mistake occur? Does it have any significance? While attempting to answer these questions, we found ourselves embarking on a scholarly pilgrimage, which took us from a shtetl-like community within a Russian imperial city, where the tune originated as a Hasidic niggun, to Anglo-Palestine in the 1930s and 40s, where it was transformed, and from there further to the European diaspora in the 1940s, to countries such as England and Poland, and then to Nazi Germany, where the version on which Klein’s song was based, was created; from there we crossed the Atlantic to New York, where a version of the original niggun was first notated, and then back to Terezín.

  • A Look at the History of Instrumental Performance
    Turkish Journal of Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation; 32(3) ISSN 2651-4451 | e-ISSN 2651-446X A LOOK AT THE HISTORY OF INSTRUMENTAL PERFORMANCE Haydarov Azizbek1, Talaboyev Azizjon2, Madaminov Siddiqjon3, Mamatov Jalolxon4 1,2,3,4Fergana Regional Branch of Uzbekistan State Institute of Arts and Culture [email protected], [email protected]. [email protected], [email protected] ABSTRACT This article tells about the emergence and development of Uzbek folk music and instrumental performance in Central Asia. There are many legends about the creation of musical instruments. One of such legends is cited by musicologist B.Matyokubov. According to the narrations, the instruments of Tanbur, Dutor, Nay, and Gijjak are the four angels may be due to their efforts, namely, the messenger angel Gabriel, the angel Michael who moves the world, the angel Isrofil who blows the trumpet in the Hereafter, and the angel of death in the body of Adam. According to musicians and craftsmen, they took mulberry wood from heaven to make instruments. From the above it can be concluded that our national instruments were formed before and during our era, and some of them still retain their appearance, albeit partially. Keywords: music, instrument, circle, tanbur, rubob, ud, melody. In the book of President Islam Karimov "High spirituality is an invincible force" The book proudly acknowledges the discovery of a bone flute along with gold and bronze objects in a woman's grave in the village of Muminabad near Samarkand, which has a unique musical culture in the Bronze Age. The circular circle-shaped instrument found in the Saymalitosh rock drawings on the Fergana mountain range and depicted among the participants of the ceremony is also believed to date back to the 2nd century BC.

Turkey’s strong musical traditions range from its folk and classical repertoire to mosque music and Sufi, among others. Perhaps most famously, the spectacular Whirling Dervishes of the Mevlevi order brought worldwide attention to Turkish Sufi since the 1970s when they began to tour outside of Turkey.

  • • Ud (Also Spelled Oud)
    Oud • Ud (also spelled Oud) [ Picture of Ud ] Description The Ud (Arabic Lute) is the central symbol of Arabic traditional and classical music. It appeared in Central Asia and the Middle East more than 2000 years ago. Its rounded body gives a full, warm sound and its fretless neck allows for quarter tones and sliding effects. It can have a biting staccato attack. The European Lute derives directly from it; in fact, the word Lute is derived from El Ud (the Ud). Tuning The basic Ud has four courses of double strings tuned as follows (concert pitches): (high) string # 1 - c (piano notation: C28) string # 2 - G (G23) string # 3 - D (D18) string # 4 - AA (A13) They will be written an octave higher than their sounding pitches. Scordaturas and Extensions There are several kinds of Uds with different numbers of strings. Other than the 4 basic courses which can be taken as a rule of thumb, stringings and tunings vary, and the composer needs to inquire of the performer as to the tuning and range of his specific instrument. • The 4 string type we take as the basic or 'classical' Ud. • The contemporary 5 string Ud is very common. The fifth string is added below the lowest AA, and is normally tuned to GG (G11); sometimes it is tuned a 4th below the 4th string to EE (E8). Often this fifth string is a single string. Here is the tuning (the basic Ud is in bold): (high) string # 1 - c (C28) string # 2 - G (G23) string # 3 - D (D18) string # 4 - AA (A13) string # 5 - GG (G11) or EE (E8) • There is a 6 string Ud which is tuned in 5 courses of 2 plus one single in the bass end, thus: (high) string # 1 - c (C28) string # 2 - G (G23) string # 3 - D (D18) string # 4 - AA (A13) string # 5 - FF (F9) string # 6 - CC (C4) Oud • There are Uds of 6, 7, and 8, strings which take as their basis the contemporary 5 string Ud, and add strings above the 1st string c (C28).
