Summary " ... 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.
