Items related to Music in the Hebrew Bible: Understanding References...
Music in the Hebrew Bible investigates musical citations in the Hebrew Bible and their relevance for our times. Most biblical musical references are addressed, either alone or as a grouping, and each is considered from a modern perspective. The book consists of one hundred brief essays divided into four parts. Part one offers general overviews of musical contexts, recurring musical-biblical themes and discussions of basic attitudes and tendencies of the biblical authors and their society. Part two presents essays uncovering what the Torah (Pentateuch) has to say about music, both literally and allegorically. The third part includes studies on music's place in Nevi'im (Prophets) and the perceived link between musical expression and human-divine contact. Part four is comprised of essays on musical subjects derived from the disparate texts of Ketuvim (Writings).

Review:
"Recommended for music history fans."- Aaron Garber Library, Cleveland Orthodox Jewish Community"Friedmann presents one hundred short essays drawing musical insights from the Hebrew Bible. Some use biblical passages as points of departure . . . while others use the Bible to help elucidate an argument or observation derived from modern-day practice."- Reference & Research Book News
