"The Organ and Its Music in German-Jewish Culture examines the powerful but often overlooked presence of the organ in synagogue music and the musical life of German-speaking Jewish communities. Tina Fruhauf expertly chronicles the history of the organ in Jewish culture from the earliest references in the Talmud through the nineteenth century, when it had established a firm and lasting presence in Jewish sacred and secular spaces in central Europe." "The book presents in-depth case studies that illustrate how the organ has been utilized in the musical life of specific Jewish communities in the twentieth century. Based on extensive research in the archives of organ builders and in the collections of Jewish musicians, The Organ and Its Music in German-Jewish Culture offers comprehensive and detailed descriptions of specific organs as well as fascinating portraits of Jewish organists and composers. This book will be of interest to performers, students, and scholars of the organ, as well as by students and scholars in historical musicology and Jewish music."--BOOK JACKET
