| Subject | While no single work can embody the wealth of diversity found in the Yiddish musical genre during its flourishing years --the 1880s to the 1940s-- Di goldene kale (1923) offers an especially rich sampling of traits that audiences of the period could expect. The music is by Joseph Rumshinsky, the undisputed dean of Yiddish operetta composers in the U.S., who wrote the music for well over 100 such works. The libretto is by Frieda Freiman, about whom almost nothing is known except that some of her scripts, including this one, have been erroneously credited to her husband, Louis Freiman. The lyrics are by Louis Gilrod, who collaborated with leading composers of Yiddish songs and musicals. This edition includes the full score, lyrics, and libretto in transliterated Yiddish, together with an English translation. This work is the first from the entire Yiddish-American musical stage to appear in print in any form other than vocal scores of individual songs. |
