JAKOV JAKOULOV - YIDDISH LEXICON (2010)
(written for the Poulenc Trio)
In the spirit of "The Joy of Yiddish" by Leo Rosten, Jewish/Roma composer Jakov Jakoulov explores the meanings of ten Yiddish words that have earned familiar places in the English lexicon. With movements like "Shiksa," that chronicles the courtship of a young woman, and "Meshugenah," a slightly-crazy waltz, this semi-programatic work includes text for the audience to read while listening.
