  • Description

    When the earliest records featured in this anthology were new, Yiddish popular culture still had its showroom shine. Everything from old fashioned cantorial hymnsand blistering Klezmer dance tunes to the latest creation from the Yiddish stage, shone brightly with the patina of being reinvigorated.

    It was fresh, inventive and in transition. With American assimilation and the post-Holocaust rise of Israeli culture, though, Yiddish music was losing far more adherents than it was gaining.
