Out of the crucible of the fight
for an independent state, vital
Israeli musical culture is emerg-
ing.
Music came to the Jewish
homeland in the early part of the
18th century with the first colon
lists = mainly from Eastern Eur
ope, with some from other parts
of the world. Today it is the art
form in which, for several rea-
sons, the greatest and most rapid
development may be expected.
Historically, the achievement
of national aspirations by any
people opens the floodgates of
human creativeness. Culture
lflourishes when national oppres-
sion is lifted, when people, en-
joying a common heritage, build
a LIE together.
Nationhood for Israel means in
general the development of a
new culture, a great sowing and
harvest of the arts, as the Jewish
people, dispersed for centuries
over the face of the earth, now
unite the enormous diversity of
the past with the new life being
developed today in their own
country.
Oscar Regen's observations a.
bout the future of music in Israel
those of a layman who has long
combined a deep interest in mu-
sic with a deep interest in Zion
ism : have been confirmed in
discussions with composers, ar
lists and other music specialists
with whom he has been privileg-
ed to work closely in recent
months through the activities of
the Israel Music Foundation.
