This study demonstrates Paul Schoenfield's reintroduction of the
flute as the lead instrument in klezmer music, diverging from the
recent exclusive use of the clarinet. The present study of
Schoenfield's blending of klezmer and classical idioms focuses upon
his chamber concerto, Klezmer Rondos for Flute, Male Vocalist and
Orchestra. This document presents a brief biography of the composer
exemplifying Schoenfield's compositional process and the influences
on his music. In order to provide the reader with an informed
understanding of klezmer style, the history and development of
klezmer music is chronicled and the various stylistic elements
idiomatic of this traditional music are described. Ultimately, a
discussion on the genesis of Klezmer Rondos from the commissioning
process through later revisions, as well as a complete analysis of
the work, illustrates the composer's use of klezmer modes,
ornamentation, and orchestration blended into the classical
concerto genre.
