DAS JUEDISCHE CHANSON IN EINEM SCHLUCK, SO KOENNTE MAN DIESES KURZE WERK AM BESTEN UMSCHREIBEN. MELODIEFETZEN VON TYPISCH JUEDISCHEN LIEDERN ZIEHEN VORUEBER. EINMAL AUSSER SICH VOR FREUDE DANN WIEDER RUHIG UND BRAV, ABER IMMER MIT DIESER MELANCHOLISCHEN STIMMUNG, DIE FUER DIE JUEDISCHE MUSIK SO KENNZEICHNEEND IST.

JEWISH SENTIMENTAL SONGS IN A NUTSHELL, WOULD PROBABLY BE THE BEST WAY TO DESCRIBE THIS SHORT PIECE. FRAGMENTS OF THOSE TYPICAL JEWISH SONGS PASS BY. SOMETIMES EXALTED, SOMETIMES SOLEMN, BUT ALWAYS WITH THAT SAD MOOD IN THE BACKGROUND, WHICH CHARACTERIZES THE JEWISH MUSICAL VOCABULARY. IN ONE'S IMAGINATION SEVERAL JEWISH CELEBRATIONS AND MEMORIALS ARE DEPICTED: BAR MITZWA, RECEIVING THE SONS IN THE JEWISH COMMUNITY, KOL NIDREI, PRECEDING THE YOM KIPPUR, REPRESENTING EVERYTHING THAT WENT WRONG AND ROSJ HASJANA, THE EXUBERANT NEW YEAR'S CELEBRATION.
