Synopsis

Album Description
This eighth volume in the Musical Heritage of the Jews from France collection presents four essential works by Serge Kaufmann: his "Yiddish Suite" in an intimate cello and guitar version; the CD debut of the string trio "Memorah"; the sublime "Neshama" for solo cello; and the cantata "Ima or the mother dispossessed," a cry of pain expressing the musical quintessence of the composer's musical art. The prolific composer is, in the words of music critic Alain Duault, not only "a composer, but a Jewish composer who gives us the remnants of a fragmented memory that he feels one of the bearers of--as though these score pages rolled up into another Torah, where a nameless God speaks luminously, which enables him to be heard in the midst of night."
