ISRAEL FOLK DANCES: featuring Elyakum, Martha
Schlamme and Mort Freeman. New York: Israel Music
Foundation. Album $4.45, LP $4.00.
The Israel Music Foundaion has done a superb
job of presenting t'he spirit of Israel in this issue
of Israel 'Folk Dances, including a Hora, a Sherelel
the Cherkassiya, and three other folk-song-dances
, .. Mayim Mayim, Hanoded, and 1m Hoopalnu.
A booklet of dance instructions accompanies the
record . . . but if the listener is an arm-chair
enthusiast (as this reviewer is) the pleasure will
be not one bit diminished by listening without
dancing.
In presenting the voice of Martha Schlamme,
Viennese soprano, ISRAEL FOLK DANCES
gives Winnipeg a fair sampling of what they
missed when Miss Schlamme failed to appear here
at the last ZCI concert.
Distinctive feature of the record 'is the musical
accompaniment to the dances. Here, instead of
stealing the show" the Chalil, harmonica, ac-.
cordion and other instrumentation is used suggestively . . . like the economy of pen or pencil
in a Rembrandt sketch. There is a conscious
oriental atmosphere ... complete to the Chinese
gO?g and wailing Hindu type flute notes ... that
brmgs to life the rich color of contemporary
Israel as very :(,ew other recordings do. ISRAELI \
FOLK" DANCES bring into the Canadian Jewish
home the utter informality of a spontaneous
Kibbutz Hora, or
one of those musicales that occur
whenever Israeli
soldiers gather in
the last seats of
a rickety Egged
bus. Sharing the
plaudits f01" this
musical delight
are Elyakum Shapira, conductor of
the Israeli ,Folk
Dance Orchestra; Mort Freeman, baritone; Moshe
Batmor-Buchholtz, chalil; and Eli Gamliel, 'caller:'

FOLK MUSIC by Edward L. Randal
Rounding out Vanguard's impressive crop
is JEWISH FOLK SONGS (VRS 9011), featuring
the talented soprano, Martha Schlamme. Miss
Schalmme's songs - by turns joyous, poignant,
humorous, and tragic, draw upon long centuries
of Jewish tradition: yet-both melodically and
emotionally, they seem as fresh as tomorrow's
sunrise. The Viennese-born vocalist is in
top form, and the engineers have favored her
with impeccable reproduction.

from NATIONAL THEATER online database:
November 17 through December 9, 1967
MATA HARI -- musical: book by Jerome Coopersmith; lyrics by Martin Charnin; music by Edward Thomas. Starring Pernell Roberts and Marisa Mell. Directed by Vincente Minnelli. Produced by David Merrick. The opening night, a grand benefit performance, was a great disaster, as scenery failed to operate properly, and Mata Hari, having been gunned down by a firing squad, rose to exit before the lights were down.
