Re: jewish music in bible

Malka:

I've used Alfred Sendry's book Music in Ancient Israel, which has an excellent 
and fascinating chapter on dance in the bible.  The book covers a broad range 
of topics, including instruments and trope, too.  Its out of print, but 
availabe in libraries or for sale used.

  Subject: jewish music in bible


  Hi,

  I'm an almost-graduate student double majoring in music and bible. I'm 
entering a PhD bible program in the fall, and am trying to figure out how to 
combine music and the bible in my studies (and ultimately in my dissertation). 
I don't want to do trope...does anyone have any input or ideas? Thanks!

  Malka Z.
