A-r Editions The Folk Songs Of Ashkenaz A-r Editions The Folk Songs Of Ashkenaz The Folk Songs of the Ashkenaz Edited by Phillip V. Bohlman and Otto Holzapfel OT6 ISBN 0-89579-474-8 (2001) x +180 pp. ISBN 978-0-89579-474-1 (13-digit) The Folk Songs of Ashkenaz dramatically transforms our understanding of music in the daily lives of the Jews of Central and Eastern Europe by documenting a five-century interaction between Jewish communities in which German, Yiddish, and their dialects were spoken as vernacular languages. Editors Philip Bohlman of the University of Chicago and Otto Holzapfel of the German Folk-Song Archive have searched through collections throughout Europe, North America, and Israel to gather a rich treasure of songs and their variants, which together reveal that contact between Jewish communities in the Ashkenazic diaspora was extensive and complex. Equally important is the documentation of exchange between Jewish communities and their non-Jewish neighbors, an exchange that clearly shows that the Jewish presence in European society before the holocaust was greater than many have previously assumed. As revealed by songs such as the German ballad The Count from Rome, published here in a sixteenth-century printed version in Hebrew characters representing a Middle High German text, Jewish musicians, publishers, and consumers were actively involved in the formation of European culture already on the eve of modernity. This critical edition also contains songs that help us understand essential Jewish contributions to twentieth-century modernism, for example, through the stage of the Viennese Jewish cabaret. One of the most crucial contributions of The Folk Songs of Ashkenaz is the way in which the Jewish folk songs it contain help us understand individual lives and the contributions of individuals to the historical moments in which they lived. With each song and variant, the editors have sought to uncover as much as possible about the singer and the cultural milieu in which she or he lived. By no means is the volume primarily a reflection on the past, for the editors strive to connect the songs to living traditions, not least among them the revivals of Yiddish song and klezmer that emerged in the 1990s, again uniting Central and Eastern Europe, the two worlds joined by the folk songs of Ashkenaz.
