Social Functions of Synagogue Song: A Durkheimian Approach by Jonathan L. Friedmann paints a detailed picture of the important role sacred music plays in Jewish religious communities. Drawing upon the work of �mile Durkeim, the book examines how synagogue songs serve disciplinary, cohesive, revitalizing, and euphoric functions.

Jonathan L. Friedmann is cantor of Bet Knesset Bamidbar and Congregation P'nai Tikvah, both in Las Vegas, Nevada. He is also professor of Jewish music history at the Academy for Jewish Religion, California and the co-founder of two cutting-edge bands: Rabbinical School Dropouts and Elijah's Chair. Jonathan has published over 300 popular and peer-reviewed articles, and is the author or editor of ten books, including Quotations on Jewish Sacred Music (2011) and Emotions in Jewish Music (2012). His regular column on Jewish music can be read at The Daily Rabbi, an online magazine (www.thedailyrabbi.com).
