Pe'amim 77, Autumn 1998

[Joel Bresler <jbresler...>]

Chevra,

This issue of a periodical from the Ben -Zvi Institute is dedicated to
Prof. Amnon Shiloah. Articles include: Music of the Ladino Folksong, E.
Seroussi; Biblical Cantillation in the Istanbul Tradition, Nurit Ben-Zvi;
The Yemenite Version of Torah Reading, Mira Spiegel; Duration in the
Responsive Singing of Karaite Jews, Jehoash Hirshberg and Roni Granot;
Melisma, A Music parameter..., Dalia Cohen and Ruth Katz; Liturgical
Categories and Oriental Traditions, Frank Alvarez Pereyre.  There is an
accompanying CD.

Sadly for this reader, the entire journal is in Hebrew. I would be more
than happy to loan it out to someone that would be agreeable to posting
summaries of the articles for the list. 

Best, 

J
