Melodies and chants you always hummed or were intrigued by, are beautifully arranged in this piano book of Synagogue Music.
The selections are a tour of places, periods and styles, from the central European Ma Tovu to the Oriental El Nora Alila, from the Moorish sounding Mizmor l'david in the Ladino tradition to the early Italian polyphony styled Adon Olam, and more. Set elegantly to piano as well are the Cantor's free chants in the Half Kaddish and Kol Nidrei.The unique Bible cantilation piece Trops, is literally made of Trops, evoking a jazz / blues sound.
Insightful comments, articles and biographical sketches round up this publication to give an overall historical picture of Jewish sacred music.
