18—THE JEWISH NEWS Musk In Our Schools By IOLA R. SCHIPLER Music Director, United Hebrew Schools David Ewen, in his history of Jewish Music, makes the pro- vocative statement that music has been the very life blood of Hebrew existence throughout the ages. While he may be ac- cused of over-emphasizing the importance of his own major field of interest, the fact, never- theless, remains that music al- Ways has played a primary role In the life of the Jew, second only to the religion itself. Music has afforded means of individu- al and group expression f6r his hopes, fears, aspirations, failures, religious fervor and enthusiasm. At present, the -possibilities and benefits of a music-enriched Hebrew SchoOl Curriculum are being discovered in our larger Jewish .centers. In keeping with this educational trend. the Unit- ed Hebrew Schools are laying the foundation for a permanent music department and music program. The primary aim of this de- partment is to acquaint every Hebrew school pupil with the values and satisfactions that can be derived from Hebrew group singing. We desire to translate the daily Hebrew lesson into a living experience. We have adop- ted a three-fold program based Amp. - on our immediate 1.-.nd minimum needs: _ 1) Jewish music participa- tion and appreciation for every - PFC.

On Sunday mornings, the passerby near the Rose Sittig Cohen Building often stops to listen to the strains of enthusi- astic child voices sounding forth the traditional Hebrew melodies, the 60-odd children assembled here forming the nucleus of one of our newest projects, a com- bined United Hebrew • Schools Choir. A special occasion for the ap- pearance of this choir is the radio broadcast which the chil- dren are currently preparing in connection with Jewish Music Month. On Sunday, March 9, at 12:30 p.m., the United Hebrew Schools, through the facilities of Station WWJ, will present a 15 minute radio broadcast en- titled, "The United Hebrew Schools Celebrates Jewish Music Month." The narrator and di- rector of the program will be WWJ's announcer, Bob Leslie, and the participants will be children of the United Hebrew Schools. On Wednesday evenings a -select group of teachers and group leaders are assembling to sing Jewish music, to play the Israeli flute, to analyze Jewish song, and to acquaint themselves with the methods of Jewish Music Education. Through the growth of our Music Department, we hope that music will become a vital con- stituent of the "life-blood of our Hebrew School existence." 1' u Ji c Temple Israel Women Plan Two-Day Bazaar A two-day bazaar, the first of its kind at Temple Israel, will be held from 8 p.m. to 12 midnight on March 15, and from 12 noon to 12 midnight on March 16.
