Abstract
Ethnomusicologist Judit Niran Frigyesi, who has been studying the liturgical music of East Ashkenazi Jews for more than four decades, even compares it to an "avantgarde" noise-music or aleatoric music (2002, 143-44). But how is it possible to write meaningfully about such music practice (or about any, for that matter)? In her last book, Writing on Water.
The Sounds of Jewish Prayer (for an earlier Hungarian version of the book, see Niran 2014), Niran Frigyesi shows us how this can be achieved. SEIDLOVÁ, V. 2020.
