Yiddish Sheet Music
Images from a recently purchased collection of Yiddish sheet music, all of which were published in New York in the early 20th century. The collection consists of several hundred pieces and serves as a testament to the volume and vibrancy of the music of the Eastern European Jewish immigrant community that settled in the Lower East Side. For further information please see Immigrant Popular Culture as Contested Sphere.
