{"value"=>"<p>This type-written folio-size booklet is the script of a lecture with musical selections, intended for use by Yiddish social groups. It is an exposition on the life and contributions of East European folk song writer and performer, Mordecai Gebirtig (1871-ca. 1942), who perished in the Holocaust. In the first section, there is an English narrative interspersed with examples of Yiddish songs composed by Gebirtig. Then follows a second section devoted to the music of those selections, numbered according to the lecture text, and given as melody lines with poetics/lyrics in transliteration under the music. Titles of the songs are in Yiddish print and in transliteration. There is a brief foreword, and a listing of other publications is on the inside back of a soft cover that features a photograph of Gebirtig in the design.</p>"}
