descriptionabstract: Dans la maison du rabbin: 3 bénédictions enchaînées [Notes en anglais de Ruth Davis :] Track 3 (5.50 – 9.15) 17-07-78 mono Place: room in the home of a devout jeweller in Hara Kebira Repertory: Blessings over wine, bread, and washing of hands for a) the evening before the Sabbath (kiddush erev shabbat), b) the Sabbath day (kiddush yom shabbat) and c) the ending of the Sabbath (havdalah motzei shabbat). Performer: devout jeweller of Hara Kebira Scene: I heard these blessings sung more coherently and melodiously in homes whose Sabbath meals I attended. Since orthodox Judaism forbids recording on the Sabbath I tried to find someone who would perform the blessings on a weekday. After many shy refusals I was grateful to this jeweller for accepting. Since I couldn’t understand his Arabic and he couldn’t understand my French or Hebrew, we relied on the sporadic help of his daughter who was for most of the time busy in the kitchen. After a brief trial recording in which he rattled off the prayers in an undertone I asked him to sing louder and slower. He does not pause between the separate blessings for the three occasions, but runs them all together.
