A Hebrew Liederabend — An Evening of Hebrew Song

June 4, 2019 YIVO Institute for Jewish Research Anne E. Leibowitz Memorial Concert An elegant illuminating retrospective program devoted to classic treasures of secular Hebrew song and the poetry that has inspired this rich variety of musical expression for more than a century. Presented in the intimate setting of a traditional Liederabend (song evening) appropriate to the immediacy of this evocative experience, the recital will feature three of its leading interpreters: Ilana Davidson, Raphael Frieder, and Elizabeth Shammash together with world-renowned virtuoso pianist Yehudi Wyner. These memorable renditions of songs both familiar and forgotten convey universal humanistic themes as well sentiments of national-cultural rebirth and solidarity. Offerings include songs by composers such as Joel Engel, Joseph Achron, Alexander Krein, Paul Ben-Haim, Marc Lavry, Menachem Wiesenberg, Aaron Copland, and Kurt Weill — along with a nostalgic array of some of the most beloved and enduring “Songs of the Land of Israel” in artistic arrangements.

The concept and content of this Hebrew Liederabend was devised by YIVO’s Anne E. Leibowitz Visiting Professor-in-Residence in Music, Neil W. Levin, who delivered the pre-concert lecture on the development of the modern Hebrew song tradition, its literary basis, and the spirit of rejuvenation that drove it. This event was part of the Smithsonian Year of Music. For more information, please visit music.si.edu. https://yivo.org/Liederabend2019 https://yivo.org/Membership
