Vom Jerusalemer Tempel Nach New York written by Boris Fernbacher and has been published by BoD – Books on Demand this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2018-02-14 with Music categories.
Das 484 Seiten starke Buch nimmt den Leser mit auf eine faszinierende Reise durch 3000 Jahre jüdischer Musikgeschichte: Vom Auszug aus Ägypten über Antike, Mittelalter und Neuzeit bis in unsere Gegenwart. Durch Israel und den Nahen Osten, Nordafrika, die Türkei, Südosteuropa, die Iberische Halbinsel, West-, Mittel- und Osteuropa bis nach Russland und in die USA. Es geht u.a. um traditionelle jüdische Gebete, die Musik der Chassidim, Jazz- und Rockmusik in Israel, mehrstimmige Musik der Synagoge, Musik aus den Konzentrationslagern, Lieder der Sephardim, einen jüdischen Minnesänger im Mittelalter, klassische Kompositionen über jüdische Themen, die Klänge im altisraelitischen Tempel in Jerusalem, jüdische Kantoren des 19. Jahrhunderts, die Musik der Juden in Nordamerika, Israel sowie im islamischen Raum und vieles mehr. Dabei werden viele Themenbereiche behandelt, die in deutschsprachiger Literatur bislang noch gar nicht oder nur am Rande dargestellt wurden. Im Mittelpunkt steht dabei immer die Musik selber! Musikalische Stile, Gattungen und Entwicklungen im Judentum zu verschiedenen Zeiten und in unterschiedlichen Regionen werden dargestellt. Ausführlich und detailliert werden weltliche Lieder, religiöse Hymnen und Gebete, Kompositionen der Klassischen Musik sowie Jazz- und Rocksongs musikwissenschaftlich analysiert. Biografien und allgemeine Darstellungen der historischen und religiös-kulturellen Entwicklungen ergänzen dies, da ein tieferes Verständnis von Musik in ihrer jeweiligen Zeit nur aus dem Zusammenspiel dieser drei Faktoren erwachsen kann. Mehr als 100 Notenbeispiele und über 60, teils farbige Abbildungen erleichtern das Verständnis des Textes. Ein ausführlicher Apparat aus Quellenverweisen auf Forschungsliteratur und etliche Anmerkungen in den Fußnoten laden zum vertiefenden Studium der Materie ein. Fazit: Ein einzigartiges, sowohl für Laien als auch bereits näher im Thema involvierte Leser geeignetes, interessantes und spannend geschriebenes Buch, das jedem Leser zum empfehlen ist, der sich für Musik und/oder jüdische Geschichte und Kultur interessiert.

In the Last Book of Baghdad, Justin Sirois explores a world where, under desperate conditions, a lost collection of poems might be able to save a person's life. We see Nisreen Abid robbed of two beloved things: Al Mutanabbi Street-the literary hub of Baghdad-and her husband. With Al Mutanabbi Street in ruins, Nisreen tricks a book printer to help her locate her kidnapped husband while navigating the deadly city. Baghdad is burning out of control. Little does she know, the book she uses as ransom to get her husband back will be the most important book of her life. Justin Sirois is at the peak of his powers, crafting prose inside historical contexts largely ignored by Western media. Sirois is exploring what would easily be hidden, a world that is as real as it is ready to be revealed: The Last Book of Baghdad proves that the power of a dead poet's words are enough to transcend war's many tortures.

In the Silent Era, film reissues were a battle between rival studios--every Mary Pickford new release in 1914 was met with a Pickford re-release. For 50 years after the Silent Era, reissues were a battle between the studios, who considered old movies "found money," and cinema owners, who often saw audiences reject former box office hits. In the mid-1960s, the return of The Bridge on the River Kwai (1957)--the second biggest reissue of all time--altered industry perceptions, and James Bond double features pushed the revival market to new heights. In the digital age, reissues have continued to confound the critics. This is the untold hundred-year story of how old movies saved new Hollywood. Covering the booms and busts of a recycling business that became its own industry, the author describes how the likes of Charlie Chaplin, Humphrey Bogart and Alfred Hitchcock won over new generations of audiences, and explores the lasting appeal of films like Napoleon (1927), Gone with the Wind (1939), The Rocky Horror Show (1975) and Blade Runner (1982).
