Idelsohn's pioneering work set the ground for further research and recording of Jewish music. In 1935 a German-Jewish musicologist, Robert Lachmann, continued Idelsohn's work, and recorded the traditions of Jews, Arabs, and other communities living in Jerusalem and Palestine at the time. The emphasis of both of their work was on liturgical, traditional music transmitted orally and reflected ancient Jewish music.

(p.17)’ Jewish music is divided between two eras, one without and the other with history, one ancient and the other modern. Jewish music is also divided between religious music and secular music. Jewish music in modern times has also a national-geographic music, the music of Israel. In this paper I will discuss and try to demonstrate through musical examples and analysis the complexity of Jewish musical scholarship and the need to collect recordings of Jewish music as well as non-Jewish music. In this paper I will show the musical translations across the Mediterranean of Jewish and non-Jewish music, of Israeli and other Mediterranean musical cultures and the ongoing problem of defining musical-national-religious ...
