Title: The Songs of the Jewish Shtetle
Passage: The Songs of the Jewish Shtetle is a cultural musical project aimed at preserving the Jewish cultural heritage.  The project has gathered songs in Yiddish, a language put on the Red List of Threatened Languages by UNESCO.  Before World War II the number of native Yiddish speakers amounted to 11 million people.  During Holocaust 6 million Jewish people were killed, thus the number of Yiddish speakers halved.  The language continued in literature, oral speech, Ashkenazi folklore, and in songs.  These songs reflect habits and ways, language and music, the soul of the Jewish people.  The attitude to parents, children, neighbours, religion, work, native home, the world around and themselves, to life and death – all this is expressed in the art of singing, and each of the Songs of Jewish Shtetle becomes a little music play.  The project is unique as the Jewish songs in Yiddish, which had been persecuted for centuries, the songs that had only been played by small klezmer ensembles before, were for the first time performed with all the vivacity of a big symphony orchestra.
