:''This article is about the sacred and religious music of Judaism from Biblical to Modern times. For the main article on Jewish music, see Jewish music.'' This article describes the principal types of religious Jewish music from the days of the Temple to modern times. ==History of religious Jewish music== (詳細はTemple in Jerusalem. According to the Mishnah, the regular Temple orchestra consisted of twelve instruments, and the choir of twelve male singers. A number of additional instruments were known to the ancient Hebrews, though they were not included in the regular orchestra of the Temple: the ''uggav'' (small flute), the ''abbuv'' (a reed flute or oboe-like instrument). After the destruction of the Temple and the subsequent diaspora of the Jewish people, music was initially banned. Later, these restrictions would relax. It was with the ''piyyutim'' (liturgical poems) that Jewish music began to crystallize into definite form. The cantor sang the piyyutim to melodies selected by their writer or by himself, thus introducing fixed melodies into synagogal music. The music may have preserved a few phrases in the reading of Scripture which recalled songs from the Temple itself; but generally it echoed the tones which the Jew of each age and country heard around him, not merely in the actual borrowing of tunes, but more in the tonality on which the local music was based. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Religious Jewish music」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
