Based on a centuries-old Jewish folktale, "The Golem" tells the story of a giant clay figure created by a powerful tzaddik in order to protect the Jewish people. Created in collaboration with the
Hyman Brand Hebrew Academy community, and featuring a ten-foot tall Golem made by
Paul Mesner Puppets, "The Golem" is both an entertaining and thought-provoking exploration of creation and belonging.

2010-2011 Music Plan

I have converted the Music Plan to a .PDF file. Those of you with iPhones/iPods can load this into iBooks, and then you'll always have the music list handy. (I'm assuming other devices have a PDF reader on them, too). If you'd like a copy of the PDF file, send an email to vischoir@gmail.com.

Why they're called "octavos"....

Octavo (abbreviated 8vo or 8°) is a technical term describing the format of a book, which refers to the size of leaves produced from folding a full sheet of paper on which multiple pages of text were printed to form the individual sections (or gatherings) of a book. An octavo is a book or pamphlet made up of one or more full sheets of paper on which 16 pages of text were printed, which were then folded three times to produce eight leaves. Each leaf of an octavo book thus represents one eighth the size of the original sheet. Other common book formats are folios and quartos. Octavo is also used as a general description of size of books that are about 8 to 10 inches tall, and as such does not necessarily indicate the actual printing format of the books, which may even be unknown as is the case for many modern books.
