Research on the image of the Jew in eighteenth-century literature and theater has not identified any musical parallels to contemporary representations of Jews in the spoken theater. Yet these parallels existed and exploring them sheds new light on the European perception of Jews at this time. David Buch's study offers the earliest identifiable musical depictions of Jews in European theater (specifically in the Habsburg Empire during the age of late Mozart and Haydn, 1788-1807). His volume contains the earliest known theatrical vocal pieces intended to replicate synagogue music. This music surfaces after the first positive Jewish characters began to appear on the German stage, presenting an alternative to the common stereotype of the Jew as an object of denigration. The new image of the "noble Jew" may have inspired a number of attempts to represent the unique character of Jewish music, now presented as a distinctly different (albeit exotic) alternative to the common musical style of the time. By the mid-1790s Jewish singers and musicians were even performing their traditional music on stages in Vienna and Budapest. Yet, as Buch's study shows, the deprecatory representations of Jews on the stage persisted.
