Abstract

" ... Presenting a range of fresh perspectives on the field, the chapters explore Jewish liturgy, klezmer, music in Israel, the music of Yiddish theater and cinema, and classical music from the Jewish Enlightenment through to the postmodern era. Additional contributions set Jewish music in context and offer an overview of the broader issues that arise in its study, such as questions of diaspora, ontology, economics, and the history of sound technologies."--Back cover.

Abstract

David Conway analyses why and how Jews, virtually absent from western art music until the end of the eighteenth century, came to be represented in all branches of the profession within fifty years as leading figures - not only as composers and performers, but as publishers, impresarios and critics. His study places this process in the context of dynamic economic, political, sociological and technological changes, and also of developments in Jewish communities and the Jewish religion itself, in the major cultural centres of western Europe. Beginning with a review of attitudes to Jews in the arts, and an assessment of Jewish music and musical skills, in the age of the Enlightenment, Conway traces the story of growing Jewish involvement with music through the biographies of the famous, the neglected and the forgotten, leading to a new and radical contextualisation of Wagner's infamous "Judaism in Music".
