Question

This type of music inspired the second movement of an Osvaldo Golijov (go-lee-HOV) piece partly titled for the “Dreams” of a blind writer. Gӧran Frӧst composed a set of “Dances” in this style for his brother Martin. Based on a notebook of themes in this musical style, Sergei Prokofiev composed a piece originally advertised as his “Overture Op. 34.” A theme from this musical style forms the basis for the macabre final movement of a piece inspired by the death of Ivan Sollertinsky, (*) Shostakovich’s Trio No. (10[1])2. This music inspired the second subject of a movement originally (-5[1])called “Funeral March in the Manner of Callot” (ka-LOH) from Mahler’s (10[1])1st Symphony. Emotive clarinet music is (10[1])characteristic of, for 10 points, (10[1])what style of Jewish folk music from Eastern Europe? ■END■

ANSWER: klezmer music [prompt on Jewish folk music before “Jewish” is read] (The Golijov piece is “Dreams and Prayers of Isaac the Blind.”)
