    Cover Art Helfman Helfman_LinerNts 9440.indd 1 12/5/05 1:03:47 PM 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 fi rst 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 specifi cally 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.

  • Hanukka a MESSAGE from the MILKEN ARCHIVE FOUNDER
    Hanukka 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. My personal interest in music and deep abiding commitment to synagogue life and the Jewish people united as I developed an increasing appreciation for the quality and tremendous diversity of music written for or inspired by the American Jewish experience. Through discussions with contemporary Jewish composers and performers during the 1980s, I realized that 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, the Milken Archive of American Jewish Music was founded in 1990. This project would unite the Jewish people’s eternal love of music with their commitment to education, a commitment shared by the Milken Family Foundation since our founding in 1982. The passionate collaboration of many distinguished artists, ensembles, and recording producers has created a vast repository of musical resources to educate, entertain, and inspire people of all faiths and cultures.

  • Purim Spiel (A Purim Play) by Levin Kipnis Illustrated by Nachum Gutman
    Purim Spiel (A Purim Play) By Levin Kipnis Illustrated by Nachum Gutman Come see the show! The song Purim Spiel or Purim Play is written as a humorous script based on the Book of Esther. It is an invitation to watch a children's play with a big cast, all dressed up as Megillah characters: Mordechai, Queen Esther, King Achashverosh and Haman. Humor-filled performances have been staged in various Jewish communities on Purim since the 16th century. In Yiddish they were called Purim Spiel, in Arabic – Kal'aat Purim. Levin Kipnis perpetuated this Purim tradition in a song which is in fact a script for a children's play, to be performed by them. His words were put to music by Nahum Nardi as part of a children's Purim play, and later illustrated by Nachum Gutman. The book in its current format was first published in 1933, and the songs in it have been an integral part of many a Purim among Israeli children. Happy Purim! Ideas for Family Activities You may enjoy looking together at Nachum Gutman's special, 80-year-old illustrations. Did you notice that all the characters in the book, even the horse, are actually children in costume? You could make simple animal costumes at home using paper or foam sheets to create ears, belts for tails, or any other similar idea. Now the kids can crawl on all fours and turn into neighing horses, barking dogs, bleating sheep and so on. Do you know the tune to Purim Play? You may want to listen to the song, clap along to the music, or accompany it with your own instrument, and dance together.

The Kindertransport was a rescue effort that helped approximately 10,000 children leave Nazi Germany for England. When Erika and Horst’s parents entrusted them to the Kindertransport they did not know if they would ever see their children again.

  • Jewish Folksongs in the Palestinian Period: Building a Nation
    JEWISH FOLKSONGS IN THE PALESTINIAN PERIOD: BUILDING A NATION by ESTHER RUTSTEIN submitted in accordance with the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS in the subject MODERN HEBREW atthe UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH AFRICA SUPERVISOR: MRS N. KOLBER JOINT SUPERVISOR: DR D.W. LLOYD JANUARY 1997 ****************** This study is lovingly dedicated to my father Morris, to the memory of my late mother, Yetta and to my children - Loni and Tali. \\lHl\11~111\1 0001700961 SUMMARY The psyche of an entire people underwent a paradigm shift during the Palestinian Period (1920-1948). Jews took a spiritual quantum leap; they left the despair of the 'wastelands' of the Diaspora and journeyed towards the Promised Land. The quest of these pioneers was to rebuild their ancestral homeland. When the pioneering Halutzim encountered the ancestral soil of their Motherland, deep impulses were revealed. Their folksongs - an important component of folklore and mythology - reflected this inner dimension of their being and of their experiences in Eretz Israel by means of archetypal transformations. Initially, an idealistic devotion to reconstruction and intimate reverence for the Land was reflected. However, in the 1930s and 1940s, opposition to Jewish settlement transformed folksongs so they became increasingly militant, reflecting a movement towards extroversion in the Jewish psyche which was consolidated in 1948. Keywords Israel Jews Diaspora Palestinian Period Pioneers Mythology Archetypes Folklore Folksongs Student number: 566-427-6 I declare that Jewish Folksongs In The Palestinian Period: Building A Nation is my own work and that all the sources that I have used or quoted have been indicated and acknowledged by means of complete references.
