The Hakinor Circle of Jewish Music Lovers, which was formed recently with Mr. S. Landman as Chairman, to provide opportunities for hearing works of characteristic Jewish inspiration, gave its first concert last night. The programme included works by Ernest Block, Gnessin, J. Engel, S. Alman, and J. Achron. The Hanevel String Quartet performed Gnessin’s variation on a Jewish folk theme, the theme of which is the “Bedecken di Kalle”, Bloch’s “Prelude” and “Night”, and Alman’s “Ebraica”, descriptive of Jews arriving in the Both Midrash to study and pray, of the Sabbath atmosphere, and of Mlave Malka, the end of the Sabbath.
