Composed by Various. Edited by Bruce Donnelly. Arranged by Mike Garson. Published by Mike Garson Publishing (M5.F-P0019).Growing up in post-WWII New York, Mike Garson absorbed the myriad styles that comprise Jewish musical culture: playing traditional music in synagogues, accompanying Mel Torme, Milton Berle and other iconic Jewish performers in the Catskills, and later touring with Israeli superstar, Avi Geffen. The five songs in this volume cover a wide variety of musical and pianistic idioms, from traditional melodies to 20th century popular standards, classical to jazz. The first volume of a planned series, Jewish Songs is an indispensable resource for pianists wishing to explore this great musical tradition.
