Trinity Term 2024 Jewish Music Course
From Resistance to New Voices: Yiddish Music from Wartime to the 21st Century
Mondays, 18:15-19:15 UK Time, Online via Zoom
In this year-long course about the history of Yiddish vernacular music we have so far explored its beginnings from the Medieval period to the time of inner and outer globalization and internationalization up to 1933.
This last term of the academic year will predominantly explore the Jewish experience in Yiddish song but also the complete change in paradigms such as social contexts, fusions, post-vernacularity and performance practice.
Students are welcome to join this course on the History of Yiddish Music for any of the three terms. It is not necessary to take them all consecutively.
