Hebraeisch-orientalischer Melodienschatz, 07[G]: Der traditionellen Gesaenge der sueddeutschen Juden

Also exists in English. The volume... 'contains the traditional songs of the German Jews, as they were practiced in the 18th and 19th centuries, in the congregations of Southern and South-Western Germany. Only in these congregations was the old traditional song uninterruptedly retained... The volume is divided into three parts. Part I contains the modes or 'Steiger', i.e. unrhythmical songs. Part II consists of melodies in strict measure... Part III is a collection of synagogue songs and the modes of the Bible for the entire cycle of the year, according to the rendition of L. Sanger [1781-1843].'[from Idelsohn's preface]
