Beschreibung
The Yiddish folk song Dzhankoye reflects the pride of Jewish peasants who
sing of a Jewish kolkhoz (collective farm) on the Crimean peninsula. Juan
M.V. Garcia's arrangement (duration: 2 minutes) leaves the performers plenty
of scope for their own creativity: the melody and the choral 'background' can
be performed in a variety of ways and enriched by clapping and other effects.
Yiddish Choral Series
Series Editors: Samuel Seifert and Ludwig Böhme
Yiddish folk songs explore the complete range of human emotions, powerfully
expressing all that the Jewish people have loved, embraced and endured. Since
their origins in the 14th century, the songs have traditionally been passed
on to each generation as words and melodies alone. The Yiddish Choral Series
now makes this music available for the first time in stunning new
arrangements for choirs.
Series Editors Samuel Seifert (a member of Ensemble Rozhinkes) and Ludwig
Böhme (director of the Leipzig Synagogal Choir) have commissioned a range of
renowned international arrangers to illustrate the huge variety of creative
responses to Yiddish songs: from simple choral settings to expansive,
through-composed concert arrangements, and from typical Yiddish harmonies to
aleatoric composition.
The Yiddish Choral Series, which allows choirs everywhere to discover the
fascinating world of Yiddish song, features:
A range of choral styles and levels of difficulty, to suit all programming
requirements
Informative introductions to each piece
Transliterated Yiddish lyrics, with poetic translations into English and
German alongside the original Hebrew text
