Song (unattributed)
Song (unattributed). Performed by anonymous singer (Yemenite Jew). Date and place of performance are unknown. Cylinder # 646. 2:00
The identification of the singer as a Yemenite Jew is unlikely. The singer in the recording has a clear Baghdadi accent and musical style. The title of this item in Sholokhova's catalogue is "Kantilatsie" (i.e. Cantillation). This title however also does not fit the recording.
