Abstract

The Zemereshet website https://www.zemereshet.co.il/  In Hebrew. 

Zemereshet website, made up by a group of relatively young amateurs, includes hundreds of Hebrew songs, mostly from the beginning of zionism to 1948, in texts and usually sound files. These include recordings from live sing-along performances or recent recordings of old songs, as well as valuable old commercial recordings by soloists and choruses. Among the songs in the website, one may find many songs that were part of the live repertoire of community singing, but have long disappeared from that repertoire. This choice has special anachronistic political resonances.
