His father, Henry Landman, was 18 years old when he and around 20,000 other Jewish men were rounded up and sent to concentration camps after Kristallnacht. Henry was released and eventually made his way to NY, and years later, as a US soldier, he was there when the army liberated Dachau where he was interned in 1938. Henry also was the speaker at CBST's first Kristallnacht Program in 1990. He was asked to give the speech in Dachau for the 70th Anniversary of the liberation, but he died a few months before the date of the speech. One of the last events that he attended before he died was CBST’s German-Austrian Synagogue Music Shabbat service in the Church of Holy Apostles in 2014. Segen / Priestly Blessing Text: Numbers 6:23-27 May God bless you and protect you. Es segne dich der Herr und behüte dich. May God’s face shine upon you and be gracious to you. Er lasse sein Antlitz dir leuchten und sei dir gnädig. May God’s face be turned toward you and give you Es wende der Ewge sein Antlitz und gebe dir Frieden. peace. Amen. German/Austrian Jewish Music Shabbat Kristallnacht (Night of Broken Glass) was a horrific pogrom against Jews that took place throughout Germany and Austria on November 9-10, 1938. The name refers to the shards of broken glass that blanketed the streets after Jewish-owned stores, buildings and synagogues had their windows smashed, and were set on fire. These dark and frightening days marked the transformation of Nazi Germany from words of hatred to acts of murder and destruction. We at CBST mark these days of unfathomable destruction by celebrating the glorious musical heritage of the German synagogue. We will pray our Shabbat service incorporating musical settings written by Germany and Austria's greatest synagogue composers including Lewandowski, Sulzer, Schalit and Weill. The CBST Community Chorus, under the direction of Joyce Rosenzweig, Cantor Steve Zeidenberg and guest pianist Beth Robin will bring to life many examples of this rich tradition, which continues to this day to be some of the most gorgeous and profound synagogue music ever written. 4 Composer Biographies Eduard Birnbaum (1855-1920) was born in Cracow, Poland to a family of notable rabbis and scholars. Birnbaum received his primary education at a Yeshiva in Bydgoszcz, Poland. His teachers identified his musical talent early on and sent him to Viena to study hazzanut with Salomon Sulzer. In 1869, Birnbaum was awarded a sholarship to study hazzanut at the Breslau Theological Seminary, founded by Moritz Deutsch. While studying there, he was contracted to work as a hazzan in the Seminary's Synagogue. In 1872, he received an offer to officiate as the cantor for the Magdeburg community, where he served for two years. In 1874, he moved on to a position as the chief cantor in Beuthen, taking a short two month break between posts to return to Vienna and study with Sulzer. Finally in 1879, Birnbaum replaced Zvi Hirsch Weintraub as the chief cantor of Koenigsberg, a position he held until his death in 1920. According to Birnbaum’s own account, he was offered a position to succeed Sulzer in Vienna, but decided to remain in Koenigsberg where he was offered a life contract and comfortable salary. Julius Freudenthal (1805-1874) was born in Braunschweig, Germany, and was a violinist and composer. He performed in chamber music concerts and was the concertmaster of several orchestras. He composed works for violin, piano, and voice. Together with Chazzan Hirsch Goldberg (1807-1893), he published a collection of synagogue songs for solo and small choir in two parts entitled Gesange fur Synagogen in 1843. His setting of Ein Kelohenu, written for this publication, became one of the most well-known synagogue melodies in the world. George Frideric Handel (1685-1759) was a German-born British Baroque composer, famous for his operas, oratorios, anthems and organ concertos. Handel was born into a family indifferent to music. He received critical musical training in Halle, Hamburg and Italy before settling in London (1712) and becoming a naturalized British subject in 1727. By then he was strongly influenced by the great composers of the Italian Baroque and the middle-German polyphonic choral tradition. Handel is regarded as one of the greatest composers of all time, with works such as Water Music, Music for the Royal Fireworks, Judas Maccabeus, and Messiah remaining universally popular. Handel composed more than forty operas in over thirty years, and with the revival of baroque music and original instrumentation, interest in Handel's operas has grown. The L’chu N’ran’ah (Psalm 95) that we will sing tonight is an excerpt from an Anthem (cantata) entitled “O kommt, laßt uns singen” that sets verses from Psalms 95, 96, 97, 99, and 103 and is scored for two violins, oboe, recorders and continuo. Samuel Lampel (1884-1942) was born in Berlin, and moved to Leipzig in 1914 to serve as cantor at the Gottschedstrasse Synagogue. A scholar of Jewish music, Lampel hosted a popular radio show focused on Jewish musical and liturgical history, and organized lectures for non-Jewish musicians and composers at the synagogue. His major work, Kol Shmuel, a collection of fifty-seven liturgical works, was published in 1928. Following the destruction of his synagogue during Kristallnacht in 1938, Lampel served as the last communal leader of the Leipzig Jewish community until 1942, when he and his wife Rosa were deported to Auschwitz. Tonight, we perform two of his liturgical settings: L’chu N’ran’na (Psalm 95) for Cantor and congregation, as well as his choral setting of Priestly Blessing (Segen). 5 Louis Lewandowski (1821-1894) A composer, music director, and teacher, Lewandowski was born in Wreschen (Wrzeźnia) in the province of Poznań. He and his four brothers accompanied their father as “singers” during the services. After his mother’s death and because of extreme poverty, he left for Berlin at the age of twelve and became a singerel (singer) for Cantor Ascher Lion (1776-1863).

    5779 - dbhbn ovrct [email protected] 1 sxc HALACHIC AND HASHKAFIC ISSUES IN CONTEMPORARY SOCIETY 132 - HALACHA AND KABBALA - PART 2 OU ISRAEL CENTER - SUMMER 2019 • In Part 1 we saw how the early Acharonim began to assimilate the Zohar into the halachic process. The positions included: • R’ Elyahu Mizrachi (15C Turkey) - kabbalistic concepts are highly esoteric and, although special individuals are free to adopt them, ordinary people are not required to follow them. • Radvaz (16C Egypt) - kabbalistic practices are acceptable as chumrot, but not where they contradict the Talmud. • Beit Yosef (16C Eretz Yisrael) - incorporates selected halachot of the Zohar into the mainstream halacha. Where the Zohar conflicts with Talmud, the Talmud prevails. However, where the Zohar conflicts with the post-talmudic poskim, the Zohar prevails. • The Rema (16C Poland) - disagrees with the Beit Yosef on the latter point. According to the Rema, the Zohar cannot even override the post-talmudic poskim. • The Maharshal (16C Poland) - is concerned in many cases about the problems of integrating kabbala into halacha. • The Maseit Binyamin (17C Poland) - considers that the Zohar outweighs all the post-Talmudic poskim put together! • R. Ya’akov Emden (18C Germany) - whilst skeptical about the origins of every word of the Zohar, maintains that, although in any dispute between the Zohar and the Bavli we follow the Bavli, where the Bavli is unclear and subject to many interpretations and the Zohar can clarify the position, we are to look to the Zohar. The Zohar should not be rejected in halacha, provided it does not directly contradict the Bavli and we should try wherever possible to reconcile the Zohar and the Bavli.

  • B”Sd Minhagim of Congregation Tiferes Yisroel As Given
    b”sd Minhagim of Congregation Tiferes Yisroel as given over by Rabbi Menachem Goldberger Rosh HaShanah Elul • The shofar is blown every morning during the month of Elul, beginning with the 1st of Elul, which is the second day of Rosh Chodesh. In our shul, we blow the shofar after Alenu. This is followed by L'Dovid. • In nusach sfard, L'Dovid is said at shacharis and mincha. In nusach ashkenaz, L'Dovid is said at maariv and shacharis. If dovening in a nusach ashkenaz kehilla, you can say L'Dovid quietly at mincha, and repeat it again with the kehilla at maariv. • In general, never make a PUBLIC departure from the tzibur. Slichos • Slichos begin on Motzei Shabbos before Rosh HaShanah, usually about 1 AM (after chatzos). When Rosh HaShanah falls on Tuesday or earlier, slichos begin two shabbosos prior to Rosh HaShanah. Erev Rosh HaShanah • Because we are marbeh b'tachanunim on erev Rosh HaShanah, we begin slichos earlier than on the other days on which we say slichos. • Men should go to the mikveh after chatzos. • Hataras Nedarim -the annulment of vows-should be said before a beis din of three men, after shacharis. A man can have his wife in mind as well, although a woman can do it for herself if she wants to. The beis din requirements for hataras nedarim are not as strict as usual, e.g. a relative can be a member of the beis din. Shofar and Kittel • Men wear a kittel during the day on Rosh HaShanah. At night, only the shaliach tzibur wears a kittel.

  • MINYANIM: BULGARIA Sephardic and Ashkenazic Jews
    MI NY ANIM: BULGARIA Sephardic and Ashkenazic Jews By: Elisheva Kupferman; Conceptual Creator: Esti Moskovitz-Kalman 1. Introduction: Jewish culture developed throughout history and around the world. While Jewish people from all over the world share commonalities that unify them, each world Jewish community also incubated its own art, music, liturgy, and customs that is unique to them. And though each distinct community or locale boasts their own traditions, the broadest divide in customs is between the “Sephardic” and “Ashkenazic” communities. The term “Sephardim” refers to the Jewish communities that descended from Jews who lived in Spain and Portugal Before the Spanish Inquisition. More commonly, however, the term “Sephardim” is used in a wider sense to include most Jews of Asian and African origin, who use a Sephardic style of liturgy. Sephardim traditionally pray using Minhag Sefarad , which is quite similar to Nusach Edot haMizrach (liturgy of the Eastern Congregations). The term “Ashkenazim” refers to Jews descended from the medieval Jewish communities along the Rhine in Germany from Alsace in the south to the Rhineland in the north. Though Ashkenazim are literally "German Jews," the term now refers to all Jews from who identify with these traditions, though they span Western, Central, and Eastern European descent. Most Jews from Europe identify as Ashkenazi, with the noted exception of communities near the Mediterranean. The Jewish community of Bulgaria dates back to antiquity, and is made up of both Sephardic Jews (who traditionally spoke Ladino), as well as Ashkenazic Jews. As such, it is fitting that as a local Bulgarian group of Jewish leaders, you would choose to take a deeper look into the ways in which both communities differ, and where they might connect.

  • The Venetian Jewish Anthology: Liturgical Music 1
    THE VENETIAN JEWISH ANTHOLOGY: LITURGICAL MUSIC 1. Introduction (J. Malino) 2. Presentation to the NEH Institute by Rabbi Elia Richetti ( to be submitted by Luis) 3. Musical database: to date ( to be submitted by Luis) 4. Future additions to the database (J. Malino) 4. Miscellaneous notes from discussions with Rav Richetti (J. Malino) 1. Introduction A unique feature of the Venetian Ghetto was the density of its Jewish ethnic diversity. A significant aspect of this diversity was reflected in its many synagogues. Although only five synagogues remain in the Ghetto today, they provide ample evidence of this diversity, two being Italian Ashkenazic, one Italian, and two Sephardic (one Levantine and one Ponentine). The musical and liturgical traditions of these synagogues have evolved over time, and there is little possibility of recovering this history fully. In its place, the Venetian Jewish Anthology has set out to harvest the liturgical musical traditions from various communities across Italy, particularly those in the Veneto, whose diversity is akin to the diversity once apparent in Venice itself. To date, the focus is on Torah and Haftarah cantillation, and the music of the Pesach Seder. To this we hope to add selections from the nusach for weekday, Shabbat and festival liturgy. To preface the musical databases we have included the musical presentation to the NEH Institute by the chief rabbi of Venice, Elia Richetti. The musical recordings, which follow this presentation, were also contributed by Rav Richetti who possesses a beautiful voice, a broad knowledge of Italian liturgical music, and a great delight in sharing his knowledge.

  • From Boston to Berlin with the Zamir Chorale of Boston I Don't Believe In
    From Boston to Berlin with the Zamir Chorale of Boston I don’t believe in ghosts. But when Zamir was in Berlin in December of 2011, I had the eerie sensation that we were channeling the spirits of Germany’s departed Jewish musicians. The Louis Lewandowski Festival committee had invited us to come to Berlin and represent the United States at their upcoming celebration of the life and work of the greatest nineteenth-century composer of synagogue music. I had a feeling we would be interested, but I was unprepared for the enthusiasm with which the members of Zamir responded to the invitation. Thirty five singers (along with a handful of spouses and partners) were eager to travel and pay for a rather expensive flight. But none of us could have anticipated the amazing experience that was about to unfold and change our lives. The festival was organized and underwritten by Mr. Nils Busch-Petersen, an influential philo- Semitic Berlin lawyer, who has served as District Mayor of Berlin-Pankow, Chief Executive of the National Association of Medium-and Large-scale retail, and Managing Director of the Berlin- Brandenburg Trade Association. He is also CEO of the Friends of the Berlin Synagogal Ensemble, and published author of four books about German Jewish merchants. Busch-Petersen spared no expense in planning this festival; there were huge billboards advertising the festival all over Berlin, and the choirs were treated like visiting royalty. Our first concert was in the Krankenhauskirche in Wuhlgarten, a neighborhood of East Berlin, and a 75-minute bus ride from our hotel.
