Publisher Synopsis
"Original in its organization and breadth, Jewish Musical Modernism is distinguished by the quality of the individual studies, the manner in which Philip Bohlman has framed and integrated these essays in the context of larger issues - such as myth, diaspora, and messianism - and the inclusion of valuable illustrations and musical recordings. This volume makes a significant contribution to our understanding of key moments in recent Jewish history that have immediate resonance and relevance for contemporary discussion." - Jeffrey A.
