KITKA, Joshua Horowitz & Cookie Segelstein: Szombateste búcsúztató & A gute vokh (Live)
Kitka’s Daily Wintersongs Offering for December 31, 2021
SZOMBATESTE BÚCSÚZTATÓ
Hungarian Jewish, traditional, arr. Juliana Graffagna, Cookie Segelstein & Joshua Horowitz, from the repertoire of Márta Sebestyén
Recorded on the album Kitka: Sanctuary
available from www.kitka.org/shop and kitka.bandcamp.com
Although the origin of this tune is uncertain, it is likely a women’s devotional song sung to bid farewell to the Sabbath.
“My mighty one, in my suffering, I call to you.
The Lord is mine and I shall not fear.
Thus, you are my hope and I seek your salvation.
The Lord is the strength of my salvation.”
Lead vocals: Juliana Graffagna
Instrumental:
DRUSHPÉN
Motives from Romanian songs, arranged by Cookie Segelstein
The word Drushpén (lullaby) is from “Klezmer-loshn,” the secret language devised by klezmer musicians in order to avoid being understood by their wedding clients and adversaries, especially the police.
A GUTE VOKH
Yiddish from Bratslav, Ukraine, melody by R. Kalmanovsky, from the singing of Gershn Eisenberg, via Gerry Tenney, Lorin Sklamberg, and Adrienne Cooper, arr. Shira Cion, Joshua Horowitz, and Cookie Segelstein
Recorded on the album Kitka: Evening Star
available from www.kitka.org/shop and kitka.bandcamp.com
In the Jewish tradition, the Sabbath ends on Saturday evening after the first three stars appear in the sky. The Sabbath greeting and blessing, A gute vokh (“a good week”) is spoken after Havdalah, a ritual marking the separation of sacred Sabbath or holiday time and the workweek to come. The Havdalah ceremony involves burning a multi-wicked candle, blessing a cup of wine, and smelling sweet spices.
“A good week, a healthy week!
Oy, we wish to all Jews, and to all fine good people who are gathered here
that we should all be healthy.
We will drink wine until the dawn.
Oy, may God give to everyone what they need, according to their desire.
Oy, bread to eat, clothes to wear, and Kiddush wine for Havdalah.”
Shira Cion, lead vocals
