EXODUS 9:1 Then the LORD said unto Moses: 'Go in unto Pharaoh, and tell him: Thus saith the LORD, the God of the Hebrews: Let My people go, that they may serve Me. 2 For if thou refuse to let them go, and wilt hold them still, 3 behold, the hand of the LORD is upon thy cattle which are in the field, upon the horses, upon the asses, upon the camels, upon the herds, and upon the flocks; there shall be a very grievous murrain. 4 And the LORD shall make a division between the cattle of Israel and the cattle of Egypt; and there shall nothing die of all that belongeth to the children of Israel.' 5 And the LORD appointed a set time, saying: 'Tomorrow the LORD shall do this thing in the land.' 6 And the LORD did that thing on the morrow, and all the cattle of Egypt died; but of the cattle of the children of Israel died not one. 7 And Pharaoh sent, and, behold, there was not so much as one of the cattle of the Israelites dead. But the heart of Pharaoh was stubborn, and he did not let the people go. Gang of Four: Love Like Anthrax
Quick version for the uninitiated: Camp Kinderland is a progressive, secular Jewish summer camp located in Western Massachusetts. A key component of the camp's program is music, covering almost 200 years of musical genres: folk, traditional Yiddishkeit, civil rights era, labor movement, and the occasional Beatles tune. Sounds corny, but it's pretty amazing when done right. This blog is an attempt to capture some of Kinderland's musical tradition, mostly for the enjoyment of those who have participated in it before. But if that happens to not include you, please feel free to browse around, and definitely ask questions.
Despite all appearances to the contrary, this blog is not affiliated with Camp Kinderland.
