Text
The Rito Tedesco (Ashkenazi or Judeo-German rite) was one of the oldest minhagim of the Ghetto of Venice, established in 1516 to host the Jews of German and Italian origin. In Rome, on 3 November 1956, Leo Levi recorded fifteen fragments of the old German rite - including tunes that appear in Benedetto Marcello's Estro Poetico Armonico - from Guido Heller (1901-1977), son of Guglielmo Heller, also a cantor of two Ashkenazi synagogues of the Venetian Ghetto. See Francesco Spagnolo, "Il suono del “melting pot”- I canti sinagogali di Venezia e le registrazioni di Leo Levi (1954-1959)", in Piergabriele Mancuso, ed., Musiche della tradizione ebraica a Venezia. Le registrazioni di Leo Levi (1954-1959), Squilibri Editore, Rome, 2018, pp. 46-60, especially pp. 58-60.
