Description

Rozhinkes mit mandlen by Abraham Goldfaden is one of the most famous Yiddish lullabies. It is about a mother's longing for a better future for her child. 'Rozhinkes' (raisins) and 'Mandlen' (almonds) are symbolic of well-being and prosperity.

In this choral version by Ludwig Böhme for solo voice, SATB and piano, and which lasts 3.5 minutes, the 'feast' is presented in a through-composed arrangement with a richly-textured piano accompaniment. Constantly flowing waves of quavers, inspired by the swaying 'Aylyulyu', and the added affectionate motif 'Yidele shlof' make the romanticism of the song sound almost symphonic.
