Grand Concert in Aid of the Russian Jewish Refugees Monday Eve’g March 27 ’82 by the Handel and Haydn Society in conjunction with Salem Oratorio Society Lynn Choral Union Taunton Beethoven Society A Grand Orchestra…

1882328205165 x 8 1/2 in . 4pp. Very good.This is the rare original announcement and program for a major early benefit concert supporting Jewish refugees from Russia. The pogroms carried out in 1881-82 drove countless Russian Jews to the West. This era marks the beginning of the period of the greatest Jewish immigration to the United States.The concert was held at Mechanics Hall in Boston in 1882. The featured conductors are Carl Zerrahn and George Henschel. Henschel had become the first conductor of the Boston Symphony Orchestra a year earlier. Here he leverages his position to support Jewish refugees."Beginning in the 1880s a much larger wave of Jewish immigrants arrived in Boston from the Pale of Settlement in Russia and Eastern Europe. During the nineteenth century the Russian czars had confined Jews to this region and subjected them to religious persecution expulsions and forced military conscription. Passage of the May Laws in the 1880s made matters worse by forbidding Jews from owning or renting land outside of towns or cities and limiting their access to education. From 1881-1883 and again in the early twentieth century Jews were also targeted in violent riots or "pogroms" that left thousand dead and caused many more to flee" Boston College 2018.The concert program includes pieces by Jewish composers or with Jewish themes including selections from from Mendelssohn's Elijah Handel's Samson and Henschel's "There was an Ancient King" sung by Henschel himself the finest baritone of his day. The performance concludes with Handel's "Hallelujah" chorus performed by the Salem Oratorio Society and the Lynn Choral Union.The conductor featured in this program Sir Isidor George Henschel 1850-1934 was a German-born Jewish baritone pianist conductor and composer. He became the first conductor of the Boston Symphony Orchestra in 1881. On his appointment he sent his ideas for an innovative seating chart to his close friend Johannes Brahms who replied in an approving letter of mid-November 1881.Very rare. Not in WorldCat.

Constitution and By-Laws of the American Jewish Publication Society. Founded on the 9th of Heshvan 5606. Adopted at Philadelphia on Sunday November 30 1845 Kislev 1 5606

28791Philadelphia: C. Sherman 5606 1845 5606. First edition first printing; there was a second printing dated 1846. Singerman Judaica Americana 881; not found in Rosenbach. Wrappers slightly worn; fine copy. 12mo original plan tan wrappers 11 pages. A seminal document of the American Jewish Publication Society a pioneering organization dedicated to the advancement of Jewish culture and religion in America founded in Philadelphia in 1845 by educator and writer Isaac Lesser 1806-1868 "the foremost champion of Jewish tradition in America" - DAB. The introduction states: "The subscribers deeply impressed with the necessity of fostering Jewish Literature and of diffusing the utmost possible knowledge among all classes of Israelites of the tenets of their religion and the history of their people; and feeling that the attainment of this project is beyond the means of any individual and that association is a powerful lever to foster any great and good cause do combine as a society for the purpose of carrying the above objects into effect and pledge themselves to each other to contribute all in their power to promote the interest of their association." The Society published fourteen works in a series entitled Jewish Miscellany before declining subscriptions and a fire brought its activities to an end in 1851. Stamp of the Dropsie College for Hebrew and Cognate Learning on the front wrapper and Leeser Library Hebrew Education Society oval stamp on the title-page. The relatively scant holdings recorded by OCLC is deceptive. A remainder from the Dropsie College of Philadelphia with their stamp on the front wrapper and the stamp of the Leeser Society on the title-page as here began surfacing in the trade as early as the 1980s. They have the characteristics of the kind of remainders that Edward Morrill and Son had a profusion of on the upper floors of their Boston bookstore; copies with identical provenance appeared in the 1980 catalogues of M & S Rare Books of Weston Mass and Charles Wood of Cambridge supporting this hypothesis. Philadelphia: C. Sherman, 5606 [1845] unknown
