Jacobson

Joshua Jacobson in Antwerp, Belgium
Professor Joshua Jacobson has been invited to give the keynote address at a Jewish Music conference in Antwerp, Belgium.  His lecture, JEWISH MUSIC: WHAT IS THAT?, is described as follows:

"The definition of 'Jewish Music' is to a great extent dependent on the nature of Jewish identification. Is 'Jewish' a religion? A culture? A race? A nation? Prof. Jacobson will investigate what 'Jewish Music' has meant to composers and critics, Jew and non-Jew, friend and foe.
