Timofeyeva’s Yiddishkeit, a transliteration of the Yiddish word ייִדישקייט (literally: “Jewishness”), was composed in 2008. Theearlier version of Yiddishkeit (for cello and 7-string guitar) was recorded by the Timofeyev Ensemble on their 2009 CDShloyme. Timofeyeva arranged Yiddishkeit for cello and piano in 2022.Here are a few recommendations to the performers. The opening Adagio section (mm. 1–4) calls for somewhat heroic, yetimprovisatory character. The theme in triple meter (mm. 5–18) should be played cantabile, with a defined rhythmic feel.The new theme that follows (starting from m. 23) is to be to played like a series of questions. The playful theme (startingin m. 31) should be somewhat unsettling and anxious. The upbeat dance episode (mm. 55–70) should be the most life–affirming section of the piece.
