Abstract
This chapter investigates the movement influence of one sector of the Mizrahi community on the development of Israeli concert dance: the Yemenite Jewish community. While Yemenite Jewish traditional movement has served as a form of inspiration for a variety of concert dance creations in Israel, its reception and representation have remained complex in Israeli society. Moreover, in depictions of Israeli concert dance, this influence is often sidelined. Although this chapter is not comprehensive, it nonetheless seeks to shift the lens by demonstrating the centrality and continued presence of choreography based on Yemenite themes throughout Israeli history, showing how its reception is interconnected with Mizrahi/Ashkenazi relations in Israeli society, and exploring interpretations of the term “ethnic” and aesthetics of Israeli concert dance. The piece addresses Baruch Agadati, Rina Nikova, and Rachel Nadav in the British Mandate era; and Sara Levi Tanai, Margalit Oved, and Barak Marshall in the statehood era.
