Battle Hymn of the Republic
par
The Yiddish Radio Project explores the history and culture of Yiddish radio, bringing archival broadcasts and the stories behind them to listeners. Its recordings offer a window into a vibrant world of Jewish life and entertainment heard over the airwaves.
The program draws on original radio material to present a range of voices and styles, including music, comedy, drama, and other forms of broadcast entertainment. The title “Battle Hymn of the Republic” suggests a focus on a particular piece or subject within this collection.
With its blend of archival sound and cultural context, the project makes Yiddish radio’s distinctive language, performance traditions, and historical presence accessible to contemporary listeners.
This recording is part of the Old Time Radio collection.
