{"value"=>"<p>The text of this folio-size book is tri-lingual: English, Judeo-Spanish, and Hebrew (print text only). It is a resource book treating a variety of ethnic music materials collected from among Moroccan Jews settled in Israel. The poetics/lyrics are all in Judeo-Spanish and appear under the melody lines. For each selection, there are citations of sources. Verses in Judeo-Spanish follow upon the music, along with annotative commentaries in English and in Hebrew print. Some selections have markings for rhythmic instrumentation. Front matter consists of the following: a foreword; the list of contents; and, an introductory essay first in English and then in Judeo-Spanish. That prefatory material is particularly detailed and descriptive regarding this genre of musical expression, and includes a discussion of the collector's process of selection, transcription, and documentation. Back matter has a bibliography, and a “comparative table” for some other known versions of the songs. This material is followed by a Hebrew print text translation of all the front material, including the extended preliminary matter. For that Hebrew section, the book opens and reads right to left in Hebrew style, and the pages follow along accordingly. There is an attractive cover, in green, blue, and black, with Hebrew titles on the back cover.</p>"}
