\"Exhibit<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

According to the website  of the Hohenems Jewish Museum in Austria the exhibit presents the history of Jewish recordings “from the first gramophones and shellac records to the dissolution of this medium in World Wide Web.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This sounds like a wonderful project. Looking at sound recordings as cultural mirrors of the 20th century experience, the exhibitors write that “the omnipresent sound of the 20th century, its best known songs, musicals and soundtracks was not always Jewish <\/em>music – but always also a product of Jewish history and experience.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We do not know which recorded gems are included in this European exhibit but the Judaic Collection\/Recorded Sound Archives at FAU Libraries in Boca Raton FL hopes you will enjoy the following authentic recordings from the early 20th century.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Molly Picon – Abi Gesind<\/span><\/a>     <\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/h6>\n\n\n\n
Simon Paskal – Aheim Aheim<\/span><\/a>     <\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/h6>\n\n\n\n
Al Jolson – Angel Child<\/span><\/a>   <\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/h6>\n\n\n\n
Arthur Pryors Band – At a Hebrew Wedding<\/span><\/a>
<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/h6>\n\n\n\n
