THE NEW JEWISH NATION HAS FELT, FROM ITS’ EARLIEST BEGINNING, THAT HOMELAND AND CULTURE ARE TWO CONCEPTIONS WHICH CANNOT BE SEPARATED FROM EACH OTHER. ARTHUR RUBINSTEIN For Israel this fourth Arthur Rubinstein International Piano Master Competition is an event of deep and moving significance. It is bound up with many aspects of our nation's life, even beyond the Competition's world-wide artistic importance and the aesthetic delight it gives to great numbers We see it this year as a fitting memorial to the great musician, humanist, superbly charming man and dedicated Jew who shed his luster upon it ever since its initiation in 1974. We in Israel have benefitted from Arthur Rubinstein's special, generous concern for young talents in the country, and we are happy that young artists from many countries are to participate 1n the Competition. Their presence and the remarkable panel of judges underscore the international nature of music and Israel's place in that great world - a place consonant with Israel's dedication to the arts and the enhancement of human life. May the fourth Rubinstein Competition fulfil its hopes Yitzhak Navon Jerusalem, January 25, 1983 Mr. J. Bistritzky The Arthur Rubinstein International Piano Master Competition P.O.

  • Constructing History from Music Reportage: Jewish Musical Life in South Africa, 1930-1948
    Constructing history from music reportage: Jewish musical life in South Africa, 1930-1948 Annemie Behr Thesis presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Stellenbosch Department of Music Faculty of Humanities Promoter: Professor Stephanus Muller April 2019 Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za Declaration By submitting this thesis electronically, I declare that the entirety of the work contained therein is my own, original work, that I am the sole author thereof (save to the extent explicitly otherwise stated), that reproduction and publication thereof by Stellenbosch University will not infringe any third party rights and that I have not previously in its entirety or in part submitted it for obtaining any qualification. April 2019 Copyright © 2019 Stellenbosch University All rights reserved Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za Abstract A Jewish cultural life in South Africa is cast by secondary literatures as being English in form and Jewish in spirit. This established understanding of a South African Jewish identity is informed by cultural analyses that focus on tensions arising from being Jewish citizens of South Africa. The present thesis draws on socio-musical sources not yet introduced to general historiographies to question this construction of Jewish identity. These sources refer to music-related items that appear in the South African Jewish Chronicle and the Zionist Record newspaper publications of 1930-1948. The purpose of subjecting music reportage in local Jewish newspapers to a rigorous content analysis, is to open understandings of Jewish culture in South Africa from wider, cosmopolitan perspectives and to locate the function that music might have had in cultural processes of identity formation.

  • From the Conference Director, Malcolm Miller
    Welcome from the Conference Director, Malcolm Miller It gives me great pleasure to welcome you to the conference ‗Art Musics of Israel: Identities, Ideologies, Influences‘, an exciting initiative presented by the JMI and IMR in association with SOAS. I hope you will enjoy the richly varied programme of academic and musical presentations in an action-packed four-day event! The first ever UK-based international conference on this topic is timely, following a string of major JMI Jewish music conferences that have made an impact on the discipline. The first three, at City University (1993, 1997) and SOAS (2000), were the first of their kind in the UK, organised by Dr Alexander Knapp, the first Joe Loss JMI Fellow and Lecturer in Jewish Music. Three further events were organised by the JMI Forum for Suppressed Music (now the ICSM) on the themes of ‗Entartete Musik‘ (2000), ‗Continental Britons‘ (2002) and ‗Music, Exile and Oppression‘ (2008), the last of these organised in conjunction with the IMR. The tradition of creative interplay between scholarship and performance in those events continues in the current conference, building on the achievements of the Forum for Israeli Music‘s ‗Musical Dialogue‘ days at the South Bank (2004, 2008) featuring premieres of Israeli music, and inspiring performances by Arabic and Jewish Israeli artists. Similarly, our conference highlights the pluralism of confluent traditions and cross-cultural dialogue whilst interrogating the regional and international contexts of music in Israel through a scholarly microscope. My thanks are due to all those involved in the remarkable co-production which this conference represents.
