In 2016, Theresa May said at the Conservative Party Conference, "If you believe you are a citizen of the world, you are a citizen of nowhere."
In response, philosopher Kwame Anthony Appiah argued the case for the , for those who know how important it is to look beyond our tight-fitting borders.

ah, to be a fly on the wall... or, in this case a fly on the exterior wall of the Hippodrome. found in a 1935 issue of the apparently short-lived Jewish Music Journal which seemed to mostly cater to Chazzans, art music intellectuals and choirs.

part of a page in an old Yiddish print publication. at the top is the journal title Idishe Muzik and in large print above the photo, Der Gezang Farein.
Their is a black and white photo of a crowd of hundreds posing outside a building in winter clothes.
handwritten on the photo is FIRST MUSIC FESTIVAL, THE CHORUS OF UNITED HEBREW CHORAL SOCIETIES OF UNITED STATES AND CANADA.
underneath the photo is a paragraph listing some of the notables who attended the event. link to full journal text available in post above.

The image is a black and white photograph depicting a group of individuals, presumably a choir or congregation, standing in front of an arched church entrance. The people are dressed in formal attire; men wear robes with stoles around their necks while women don dark dresses complemented by sashes at the waist and scarves wrapped around their heads.

There is one man holding a large cross aloft to his right side, suggesting that this might be an occasion of religious significance. The individuals are arranged in several rows; front row consists mainly of younger children or teenagers, while adults occupy both middle ground and back row positions within the group. Snow can be seen on either side of the doorway behind them, indicating a cold season.

The setting appears to be outside during wintertime based on visible snowbanks near the entranceway. The photograph is labeled with text providing context: it notes "Episcopal minister, altar boy and choir standing at entrance to church ca. 1920-ca. 1950" by Horydczak, an individual presumably associated with this scene or collection of photographs.

The source suggests that additional information regarding the photograph can be found in a document named 'Portrait photographs.' The copyright symbol followed by "loener.nl," indicates it is likely sourced from an online archive.

my choir (Vancouver Jewish Folk Choir) has been having a harder time than usual finding a replacement alto section lead since our old one left town for school. if you know someone in #Vancouver who would be open to singing in in a progressive secular Jewish choir (lot of Yiddish, but also English, Hebrew, Ladino, etc.) please pass it along. it's a paid position one evening a week plus occasional concerts.

ICYMI, last night was the grand finale of the secondary schools choir competition, the Big Sing. I watched the livestream and I loved it! This was definitely one of the highlights - Fortissimo, the young men of Dilworth School in Tāmaki Makaurau, singing Go Down Moses.

well, there are some bigger historical #Yiddish choirs from NY I should probably write #Wikipedia articles about first, but I photographed a bunch of documents from the Kultur Gezelshaft Khor back at YIVO so I figured I should type up what I could find. a Yiddish art choir that broke away from the communist choir in 1929 to be non partisan heh

Uploading some images from #YIVO to Wikimedia Commons this morning and came across this excellent booklet cover from the Freiheit Gezang Farein's 13th anniversary event in 1936. A communist-affiliated Yiddish choir from New York which is one of the predecessor's of today's (non-communist) Yiddish Philharmonic Chorus.
