Kumzits (original) (raw)
Kumzits (קומזיץ) is used to describe a musical gathering that Jews partake in. Everyone sits together, be it on the floor or on chairs, and sings spiritually moving songs. In order to establish a certain ambiance the lighting is often low and candles are primarily used, or if taking place outdoors it is usually around a campfire. If it is not the Jewish Sabbath then there will usually be musical instruments, such as guitar or violin. An orator will usually tell short inspirational folk-stories between songs.

If it is not the Jewish Sabbath then there will usually be musical instruments, such as guitar or violin. An orator will usually tell short inspirational folk-stories between songs. Among Slonimer Chassidim, a similar gathering is called a "zitzen", which is Yiddish for “sitting”, is conducted by the Chassidim after the Rebbe’s Tish, without the presence of the Rebbe. It is a compound word in Yiddish composed of קום (come) and זיץ (sit). Originally the word was coined by the Biluim. Despite the opposition of some who preferred to use the more distinctly Hebrew שב-נא Shev-na "please sit" or Persian/Arabic טוזיג “Tozig” (via the Talmud), the word has stuck and is used mainly by the religious but sometimes also the secular public. (en) Kumzits (ou Kumzitz) (קומזיץ) (Viens t'asseoir) est une expression en hébreu combinant les mots yiddish קום (viens) and זיץ (assis). Le mot décrit une soirée de chants juifs inspirationnels chantés à l'unisson. Les participants sont soit assis sur le sol ou sur des chaises. La lumière est minimale pour renforcer l'atmosphère d'intimité. Si l'endroit est à l'extérieur, un feu de bois est allumé comme seule luminaison. À l'exception du Chabbat, les chants sont accompagnées par des instruments de musique, en particulier la guitare, la flûte ou le violon. Toute occasion est bonne pour un Kumzits, mais le plus souvent il prend place le vendredi soir ou le samedi soir. (fr) |
