Wolpe, Stefan
Wolpe In Jerusalem (1934-1938)



Label: Mode Records
Country: USA

"In 1931, Stefan Wolpe escaped from the growing Nazi threat, eventually arriving in Vienna to study with Anton Webern. When the Austrian authorities threatened to deport him back to Germany, he left and eventually settled in Jerusalem in 1934 where he began to teach composition and direct the choir at the Palestine Conservatoire. There he composed music at the forefront of modernism and attempted to organize a Palestine Section of the Inter-national Society for Contemporary Music. His extraordinary musical gifts, fierce energy, and optimistic spirit were admired by his friends and students. Resistance from some toward his music as well as growing violence against the Jews in the area caused Wolpe to move again in 1938-this time to the United States. However, Wolpe always retained a deep attachment to his spiritual home of Jerusalem, and this disc concentrates on his important works from that time and place."-Mode Records
