PREFACE

jjHE present edition of the Union Hymnal is the second revision of a work published originally by the Central Conference of American Rabbis in 1892. At that time the need of a Hymn Book that would answer the religious requirements of Reform congregations was apparent. In the discussion of the subject, the founder and first president of the Conference, Isaac M. Wise, said: "It is not the prayer coming from thd spirit of Judaism which is fundamental, so much as it is the indestructible element in the psalm- ody of the people." (Year Book, vol. Ill, p. 23.) The late Maurice H. Harris added this significant word to the discussion: "The choir has driven the congre- gation out as far as worship is concerned. It is time the congregation be given a hearing before God."

Several attempts to create a Jewish Hymn Book had been previously made. The first attempt in the United States was the so-called Charleston collection, which appeared about the fourth decade of the nineteenth century, and of which Miss Penina Moise was the author of all the hymns except a fq,w that had been written at her request by some of her friends. In the year 1868, Temple Emanu- El of New York published a collection of forty hymns, thirty-six of which were translations from the German by James K. Gutheim and Felix Adler. Coincident with the Temple Emanu-El collection, were similar collections by Isaac M. Wise and Marcus Jastrow. In the year 1877, the Union of American Hebrew Congre- gations offered a prize for a Jewish Hymn Book, but the offer failed to induce competition, and the prize was never awarded. Encouraged by the offer of the Union, and as the only contestant for the announced reward, Simon Hecht of Evansville, Ind., published a small hymnal for Jewish Sunday Schools. In 1882, Gustav Gottheil compiled a hymnal from Jewish and non- Jewish sources. Other collections of hymns had been pubHshed by F. de Sola Mendes, Joseph Kraus- kopf. Max Landsberg, Adolph Guttman, Louis Stern, Louis Grossmann, J. Leonard Levy, Jacob Voorsanger, and Isaac S. Moses.

The first edition of the Union Hymnal was compiled by the Conference and Society of American Cantors in 1897. With various changes, it contained hymns from the Gottheil and Temple Emanu-El hymnals, as well as from the Moise and Hecht collections.

In 1914, the first revision of the Union Hymnal was published by the Central Conference of American Rabbis. It contained two hundred and twenty-six hymns as compared with one hundred and twenty-nine in the original edition. Three years later, there was a very widespread demand for another revision. Studies

were made by several committees from that time until 1924, when the present Committee on Revision was appointed. The work was brought to completion with the presentation of the manuscript to the Conference in Providence, R. I., in 1930.

The Committee sought to meet the requirements of our congregations and religious schools by providing a revision which "should ring true to the Jewish spirit." As against two hundred and twenty-sLx hymns in the second edition, the present compilation has two hundred and sixty-six hymns, many of which are entirely new. Considerable use was made of the second edition, many favorite hymns were retained, but many were eliminated, because they did not answer the special needs of our congregations and religious schools; others were re-harmonized or separated, or the language of the poetry revised so as to give more appropriate expression to the demands of Jewish theology. Jewish composers contributed melodies and settings that were inspired by traditional Jewish music. Many Jewish poems were introduced into our hymnology for the first time. The Com- mittee on Revision was actuated by a desire to produce a hymn bpok which would stimulate congregational singing, inspire Jewish devotion, revive the value of Jewish melody, make use of neglected Jewish poetry, lean heavily where possible upon Jewish motifs, awaken in the children of our religious schools a love for Jewish poetry and song, and encourage in the religious schools an earnest study of Jewish music, and finally contribute to the field of hymnology a publication which would be essentially Jewish in color, spirit and purpose.

One of the main purposes kept constantly in view was to make it as Jewish as possible, and thus meet one of the needs of our modern synagogal life, namely the adaptation of Jewish traditional music to the usage and taste of our own days. This involves a two-fold question; what elements of synagogal melody best ex- press our religious life in music employed by our congregations; and how shall we clothe them in harmony that shall reveal their own peculiar modal character and melodic contours? We would not assert that we have solved these two problems. Not only in this Hymnal, but in our religious-musical life in general, they are still far from a solution. But we have made an earnest effort to proceed in this direction. We have called upon Jewish composers for aid. As noted elsewhere in this Preface, a considerable number of them contributed compositions to this collection. Composers were urged to utilize some of the wealth of synagogal melody. This plea found a ready response. Even a superficial glance through the contents of this volume indicates how many of the hymns are based upon traditional melodies.

The Committee moreover adopted a liberal attitude toward experiments in harmonization. Some of the hymns are not intended to be sung by four voices. Some are experiments, and attempt to make use of modern harmonic discoveries and apply them to the original or synagogal melodies employed. Some original compositions are frankly in the style of traditional Jewish music, and with varying success adopt its characteristic mood.

But we recognize that the needs and tastes of our congregations are not one, but many. A number of old and new hymns have been included which are in the

general tone, but which are not specifically Jewish. In the case of these, too, the Committee has exercised the utmost care. Although we must rely upon our own judgment and recognize our fallibility, we have tried to exclude all trivial and unworthy music. Every hymn was scrutinized with genuine care and accepted only after repeated tests had been made. In some cases hymns had to be set to music three or four times before the Committee was satisfied.

Above all we fully recognize that the hymns should be singable, within the gamut of the average voice, and garbed with easy, intelligible harmony. In contrast with previous editions of the Hymnal, many songs for young children are included. Musical responses for almost every service in the year have been added.

It has been our aim to combine Jewish and general musical values. Such a Hymnal as this is not an end, but an advance on the road toward the achievement of a difficult goal. It is our ardent hope that it will help educate our congregations in the beauties of our musical heritage, and lead them God-ward "on the wings of song."

The aim of the Services in the Hymn Book are spiritual and intellectual; namely to develop in the children a spirit of prayerful devotion and to acquaint them with the regular Jewish Liturgy. These aims were attained with considerable success in the old Hymn Book. The Committee felt, however, that the Services could be made more prayerful and educational.

To have scope for experimentation, the number of Services was increased (nineteen instead of eight). This permitted the grouping of an adequate number of Services according to the ages of the children. There are Services for very young children. Services for the intermediate grades and Services for the High School Department. In addition, simple phrasing of the Services, departing from the language of the Union Prayer Book, is attempted. However, in those Services in which the adult language has been modified, the traditional framework of the Liturgy has been retained. Because of the number, some Services are experimental and others similar to the Union Prayer Book, thus permitting every school prin- cipal to have a wide choice of service.

The Transliteration of the Hebrew Text

The transliteration of Hebrew into other languages has been attempted a number of times since Origen made the first one into Greek at the beginning of the third century.

In the present transliteration there is no principle of science or scholarship involved. It does not follow the French, Italian, or any other continental system of pronunciation. It is not intended for professional singers, for choirs, or for those familiar with Hebrew itself. It is arranged for American congregations, adults and children, whose vernacular is English as it is spoken in the United States of America. It is based upon the American and not the continental pro- nunciation, particularly of vowel sounds. It seeks to reproduce the Hebrew con- sonants and vowels into English, along lines that are easily understood and consist-

ent in their application. The pronunciation of the Hebrew adopted was accord- ing to the Ashkenazic method, not because it was supposed to be philologically superior, but simply because it is the pronunciation used by the majority of those who will make use of the hymnal.

The music of the following hymn numbers is entirely new, and is exclusively the property of the Central Conference of American Rabbis, and the Conference reserves all rights in the use of these hymns: 5, 6, 7, 10, 11, 12, 13, 15, 16, 17, 19, 21, 24, 27, 28, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 38, 39, 41, 42, 46, 48, 49, 52, 55, 56, 57, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 67, 68, 69, 70, 72, 73, 74, 75, 78, 79, 80, 81, 82, 83, 85, 86, 90, 91, 92, 93, 94, 95, 97, 98, 99, 100, loi, 105, 106, 107, 108, 109, III, 112, 113, 114, 116, 117, 118, 119, 121, 122, 123, 126, 127, 128, 131, 132, 134, 135, 137, 139, 142, 143, 144, 145, 148, 152, 153, 154, 155, 156, 157, 158, 159, 161, 162, 163, 164, 166, 167, 168, 169, 171, 172, 174, 176, 177, 178, 179, 180, 181, 182, 183, 184, 185, 186, 187, 188, 189, 190, 191, 192, 193, 194, 195, 197, 198, 199, 200, 201, 203, 204, 205, 206, 210, 211, 213, 215, 216, 217, 218, 219, 220, 221, 223, 225, 231, 232, 233, 234, 23s, 236, 237, 238, 240, 241, 242, 243, 244, 245, 246, 247, 248, 249, 250, 251.
