Much Jewish folk music was collected by the Society for Jewish Music in Moscow, and the St. Petersburg Society for Jewish Folk Music. However, forces in the new Soviet regime led many potential members of the society to emigrate. Most of this music had then lain dormant for decades until the pianist Jascha Nemtsov (himself the son of a Gulag survivor) and his musical collaborators unearthed it in the last few years of the 20th century. The present collection contains the recordings on five discs – many of them world premieres – realized between 1999 and 2004. (SWR Classic)
