摘要
My essay offers a close look into what can be considered the first major moment of singer/songwriter/liturgist Debbie Friedman’s career: her 1972 service Sing Unto God. This key moment has long been obscured from view. By the time Friedman reached a consistent level of national popularity, the narratives created around her tended to draw a scrim over her early years. Reconstructing her early creative life, therefore, provides insight into her philosophical and musical trajectory, while underlining the scholarly discomfort of doing so. It also opens up new conversations about the changing state of music and liturgy in American Jewish life during the early 1970s. © 2014, Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht.
