Seminar on Upcoming Beregovsky Book

The upcoming new bilingual Russian-Yiddish academic book Moisey Beregovsky: Essays on the History of Yiddish Folk Music, has been presented on March 25th, 2025, during the interdisciplinary seminar Music in Culture organized by the Russian State Institute of Art Studies. It is scheduled to be printed in mid-April.

The book is based on a previously unknown Beregovsky’s manuscript, included and edited according to modern literary Yiddish, translated and commented, and supplied with detailed musicological and historical analysis.

The discoverer of the manuscript, initiator and organizer of this book’s publishing is Dr. Mark Zilberquit, the director of the Muzyka Publishing House and the founder of our website, which already contains a rich repository of unique materials related to Beregovsky, including Evgenia Khazdan’s Biobibliographic Index.
