Mishpokhe
My Jewish family

« What is Jewish music? Klezmer, Yiddish or Ladino songs, Mendelssohn quartets, Bob Dylan, the Gershwin standards? There is not one sort of Jewish music, there are many. Just as there is not one but many families that we create for ourselves over time, over a lifetime. My own Jewish family is one of melodies and rhythms, the instruments and singers of Jewish music and the improvisations of the hazanim, the cantors at the synagogue. The intensity of their expression haunts the memory of a continent at once immaterial and endlessly renewed.»
