Klezmer music is now experiencing a tremendous new spurt of interest worldwide with both Jews and non-Jews recreating this restless volatile, and vibrant musical culture. Firmly centered in the United States, klezmer has paradoxically moved back across the Atlantic as a distinctly "American"...

Week after week, year after year, Jews turn to sacred singers for spiritual and emotional support.

Drawing on archival sources, interviews with cantors, and photographs, Slobin traces the development of the...
