126 Yiddish songs chosen as the biggest theater hits of 1933-1934
by book and record-store owner Itzik Zhelonek of Warsaw, Poland
(his store was in the flea market across from the "used iron"
store) or appearing in the "35 newest theater songs from Azazel and
Sambatiyon" collection of 1929.
Azazel and Sambatiyon were the swingingest night spots of
Warsaw, serving up "kleynkunst" - miniature theater - monologues,
spoofs, and of course delicious songs - from earnest and nostalgic
to droll and cosmopolitan. It was music of the Jazz Age, but
theater-goers also demanded some old favorites.
I've spent three years finding and transcribing the melodies for
these wonderful songs which have mostly been lost since the
Holocaust expunged joy and frivolity from Yiddish culture. The book
has tunes, chords, transliterations, translations, commentary, and
sources. There are three companion cds: In Odess, Lebedik Yankel,
and Nervez available here at Amazon. For more information see

A young man, traumatized by a succession of evil stepmothers and
menaced by conscription in the tsar's army, gets the girl of his
dreams, loses her, he runs - but he can't hide. Though the author
probably thought this was a tragedy, I thought everybody got what
they needed, if not what they thought they wanted. So perhaps it's
a comedy.
Reminiscences about the first Yiddish novelist by a well-known
critic of the time.
